<Now honey, you stay in your own back yard,
Don't mind what the white child do;
What do you think they're gonna give
A black little child like you?
So stay on this side of the high board fence
And honey don't cry so hard.
Go out and a play, just as much as you please,
But stay in your own back yard.>
That's not a racist song. Well, it is, but not in the sense of being against the melanin-rich. It's just about what nasty bastards in other tribes "out there" do. It's about being an alien and Americans arresting you for being probably an enemy combatant and having no rights to anything, even life, no habeas corpus, no lawyers, no freedom, because you aren't an American. Even American's better watch it. Put an apostrophe wrong and Homeland Security will be leaning very heavily.
