There I was at the immigration scene
C D9sus4
shining and feeling clean
Bb
could it be a sin?
D Csus2
I got stopped by the immigration man
C D9sus4 Bb
he says he doesn`t know if he can. Let me in -
D C
Let me in, immigration man,
D9sus4 D7sus4
can I cross the line and pray
Am Bb
I can stay another day
D C
Let me in, immigration man
D9sus4 D7sus4
I won`t toe your line today
Am Bb D
I can`t see it anyway. Hey hey
There he was with his immigration face
giving me a paper chase
but the son was coming
`cos all at once he looked into my space
and stamped a number over my face
and it sent me running
Won`t you let me in, immigration man
can I cross the line and pray
I can stay another day
Won`t you let me in, immigration man
I won`t toe your line today
I can`t see it anyway.
Here I am with my immigration form
it`s big enough to keep me warm
when a cold wind`s coming
so go where you will
as long as you think you can
you`d better watch out, watch out for the man
anywhere you`re going.
Come on and let me in, immigration man,
can I cross the line and pray
take your fingers from the tray.
Let me in, irritation man,
I won`t toe your line today
I can`t see it anyway.
