lyrics

Immigration man designed to clean this town
Let's hide in the sand or stay underground

Next morning at lawyer's office
Elevator two floors up
Two hundred bucks for a consultation
After talking for twenty minutes
It can be done if you really want
Just fill out all the information

We always sympathize with the people like you
We help you exercise your rights all way through

But there's one easy way out
Find a citzen girl and marry her
Di di da da da di da
Di di da da da di da
Help me here

Wont' you be my, won't you be my, won't you be my green card bride?
But don't say a word to the Arizona border police

It's been so many years since we came to this land
And we live with growing fears which we learned to withstand

When opportunity even knocks, we can't still unlock the door
In fact we are ready to escape from the window
But we can never turn back the clock, we built our lives around the block
We are living in between shadows and rainbows

But please do understand
No one is proud to do this thing
Di di da da da di da
But money talks

Wont' you be my, won't you be my, won't you be my green card bride?
But don't say a word to the Arizona border police

Pa payapa paya pa payapa...

Wont' you be my, won't you be my, won't you be my green card bride?
Wont' you be my, won't you be my, won't you be my green card bride?
