English-Only Blues
I am a proud monolingual
I fight to keep my language on a throne
I never took the time to try to understand
How people speak a way unlike my own
I am the victor of the past
I am the victim now, you know
I think that my country's under attack
So let's cut off the immigration flow
I am afraid of foreign clothing
I voted English-only schools
I pass my fear on to my children
I pray for peace but deny them the tools
I fight to keep my language on a throne
I never took the time to try to understand
How people speak a way unlike my own
I am the victor of the past
I am the victim now, you know
I think that my country's under attack
So let's cut off the immigration flow
I am afraid of foreign clothing
I voted English-only schools
I pass my fear on to my children
I pray for peace but deny them the tools
