Hong Kong protesters out in the streets It's there they clash with police Fighting to avoid legislative defeat That would put them in the reach Of the government's gripping grief Hong Kong was a place to hide from fascism But became a mad schism Driven by hedonism Justifying a decision For China to make an incision Meanwhile in Mexico They're telling the rest to go Back to their own country Because a fascist is hunting Using social issues for stunting To distract from economic punting Mexico was a tolerant purgatory For those avoiding a death so gory That nobody would know their story As the drug cartels take all the glory With the police and politicians they're affording Using all the drugs they're exporting These places used to be safe havens From corruption laden Militant ravens Who are actually craven Hiding behind guns and the arraignment Of any other tribe walking their pavement Now there's nowhere to escape From the horrible hate In this globalist state So the noblest slate Is to no longer wait And set things straight
