SANCTUARY CITIES

You don’t buy your steaks at Sharper Image
You don’t pick your presidents from 5th Avenue
You don’t buy your steaks at Sharper Image
You don’t pick your presidents from 5th Avenue
What did you do?
What did you do?

In a tower, in his home away from homes
Behind the black glass, lives the hyperbolic troll
In the shower, golden aqueduct of Rome
Sippin’ vodka, picking fights for sport alone
Here comes a post, I smell the smoke

You can swing for the barbwire fences, Wear your baseball hat
These are sanctuary cities, Just remember that

Give me your tired, give me your poor
Your huddled masses, show em the door
They slash your tires, invade your pores
Reboot her tablet, blow out her torch

You can swing for the barbwire fences
Wear your baseball hat
These are sanctuary cities
Just remember that.

You don’t buy your steaks at Sharper Image
You don’t pick your presidents from 5th Avenue

Pulling punches out of thin air
Pulling punches like we just don’t care

You can swing for the barbwire fences
Wear your baseball hat
These are sanctuary cities
Just remember that
