Illegal Alien

Got out of bed wasn't feeling too good

With my wallet and my passport

A new pair of shoes

The sun is shining so I head for the park

With a bottle of Tequila

And a new pack of cigarettes

I got a cousin and she got a friend

Who thought that her aunt knew a man who could help

At his apartment I knocked on the door

He wouldn't come out until he got paid

Now don't tell anybody what I wanna do

If they find out

You know that they'll never let me through

Cos it's no fun being an illegal alien

No it's no fun being an illegal alien

Down at the office had to fill out the forms

A pink one, a red one, the colours you choose

Up to the counter to see what they think

They said

'It doesn't count man, it ain't written in ink'

I don't trust anybody

Least not around here

Cos it's not fun being an illegal alien

I tell ya it's not fun being an illegal alien

No no no no no it's not fun being an illegal alien

(I mean it when I tell ya that)

It's no fun being an illegal alien

An illegal alien, O.K.

Consideration for your fellow man

Would not hurt anybody

It sure fits in with my plan

Over the border

There lies the promised land

Where everything comes easy

You just hold out your hand

Keep your suspicions

I've seen that look before

But I ain't done nothing wrong now

Is that such a surprise

But I've got a sister

Who'd be willing to oblige

She will do anything now

To help me get to the outside

So don't tell anybody what I wanna do

If they find out

You know that they'll never let me through

Because it's no fun being an illegal alien

I tell ya it's no fun being an illegal alien

(And it's getting me down)

It's no fun being an illegal alien

No no no no no It's no fun being an illegal alien

It's no fun being an illegal alien...
