Mockingbird

 

Hush, little baby, don't say a word

Papa's asylum case will not be heard.


And if asylum won't be given

Papa’s gonna go to detention prison.


And if detention’s not forever

Papa'll be deported when it's over.


And if he’s deported to the place we fled

In a year or so, papa will be dead.


And if he’s dead, they'll come for me

We’ll live in jail in the land of the free.


Hush, little baby, don't you cry

Papa will be with you by and by.
