~~~~~~~~~~Lyrics:

If you build a wall, we'll tear it down.
While you attempt to separate through the systems you create
You complicate, we'll simplify -- we all live or we all die.
So build your wall high to the sky -- we'll tear it to the level of the human eye.
Build a wall, we'll tear it down. X 8
Hay puentes. Hay palas. X2
Si mis amigos, yes my friends, when we stand united we always win
When we stand united to defend everyone who is American.
Whether centro, norte or south, the wall will divide us there is no doubt
So from the top down to the ground when you build these wall we'll tear them down.
Build the wall, we'll tear it down X 8
Trumpty Dumpty built a big wall
Trumpty Dumpty took a big fall
All his science-denying supremacist friends
Couldn't put Trumpty back together again
There's just no rest for the righteous hands
The advisor to the president who gives voice to white supremacists
Bent to destroy our government but calls himself a patriot
Riddle me this -- what do you get when a country has no government?
No DOJ no EPA and they block Social Security?
I can't see how this helps us win unless they want a wall to keep us in.
Build a wall, we'll tear it down
Educate the bigots. Yeah they're just stupid. Ignorant.
We all need more education. We all want more immigration.
Yemenese. Let em in. Sudanese. Syrians. Iranians. Iraquians. Libyans
Build the wall we'll tear it down
Hatred, (tear it down), bigotry, con job, racism, sexism, ageism, homophobia, imperialism, anti-semitism, classism, islamophobia, ignorance, cynicism, Christian extremisism,
tumba la pared. Yeah, yeah, yeah build a wall we'll tear it down
