He who insists on choosing his neighbors
Is often not the friendly kind
He who would limit the neighbor from coming
Is not of a welcoming mind

They come from far countries
And they come from afar
And we tell them they're not welcome here
We tell them all of the lots are taken
And we chase them away in our fear

These immigrant folks would only be neighbors
But we are not of an neighborly mind
We chase them away and look for their faults
And faults are what we find.
