Although many of you
May think not
America is great big
Melting ***
Where different languages
Are spoken a lot
It’s all part of
Our polyglot

So don’t you point
A finger at me
Because you’re limited
As I can see
Nor threaten me
With I-C-E
An illegal immigrant
I may not be

And if you want
English spoken only
Then I’m afraid
You’re gonna be lonely
Cuz I speak another language
You wanna stone me?
Or presume to assume
You can disown me

Can’t we all just
Get along
Being a polyglot
Don’t make me wrong
While English only
Is a familiar song
It’s our diversity
That makes us strong
