about

Demo version of Poor Immigrants recorded at home. Special guest Jason Smith on drums!

lyrics

He left his homecountry long long time ago
to work for kfc, to make some cash you know
Some people say that he should do something else
He should cure people with such precious hands

But we’re all immigrants making those schemes and plans
Dreaming of something else, something more
But oh poor immigrants they won’t understand
Coz the way we think the we speak is a bit different

I used hang out with aristocrats
Now I’m a cleaner and looking after cats
Some people say that I should do something else
I should just go home, never to come back.

But we’re all immigrants making those schemes and plans
Dreaming of something else, something more
But oh poor immigrants they won’t understand
’Couse the way we think the we speak is a bit different

Working and working for 5 pounds a day
The boss is dubious but at least we can stay
Not paid our wages for ages, but his wife drives a Mercedes
What was I thinking
When I moved here to England…

Dont get me wrong I am still very grateful
My tummy is always full and it’s pretty peaceful
I know I am lucky to live in this country
Just things been much harder, than I thought they would be

when I got on that … plane..
