BIRTH CERTIFICATE

(album: DUMB BLOOD - 2017)

Our legislation is so black and white
Immigration laws can't change over night
Reminds me that you have to go home
Oh my God, you have to go home

It only takes a second
Burn your birth certificate oh
If the world's our home
Then why's she got to got to go home

Patriotism is a fucking lie
I'll be branded British 'til the day I die
I got this label through invasion
So maybe one day soon we'll be Korean
Cha cha cha

Oh my God, you have to go home
Oh my God, you have to go home

It only takes a second
Burn your birth certificate, oh
If the world's our home
Then why's she got to, got to go home

You know we have these borders
Built by ancient kings
But the names they chose
Don't mean a fucking thing to me
I'm just as English as I am Chinese
I'm Iraqi, Pakistani, Cuban, Japanese

Oh my God, you have to go home
The place you're told you have to call home

It only takes a second
Burn your birth certificate, oh
If the world's our home
Then why's she got to, got to go home

Our illegitimate, conniving, fickle Governments will control
Who we love and how long
We belong in each others arms
Who we love and how long
We belong in each others arms
Who we love and how long
We belong in each others arms
