Toyota Man Lyrics

[Letra de "Toyota Man"]

[Verso 1]
Llegamos al apartamento cuatro
De un tío
Después que cruzamos el río
Por Reynosa
Los bolillos nos ven con los ojos fríos
Si no queremos lios
Nos acaban de dar trabajo
Lavando Toyotas
(I'm gonna need you to wash all these here Toyotas)

[Verso 2]
Por algo hay que empezar
Pero no deja avanzar Uncle Sam
Aquí tú no cuentas igual
Y siempre vienen a chingar
Con papeles que quieren chequear
Ya estoy harto
¿Tú también no estas harto?

[Coro]
Venimos a estudiar
Queremos trabajar
Aunque lo quieran negar
Todos somos Americanos
Venimos a estudiar
Queremos trabajar
Y aunque nos quieran quebrar
Ya tenemos green card

[Interludio Instrumental]

[Verso 3]
Bailando de chavón
A bidi bidi bom bom
Mexicano hasta '94
(Now is everyone in the car an American citizen?)
Then they said, "You got to learn to dance at their tempo
Order fries with your combo
And learn to speak in English from HBO"
(¿Como se dice Larry Sanders?)

[Verso 4]
Por todo el esfuerzo que das
Aunque te la rifas, es un scam
Acá no te miran igual
Te tendrás que aguantar
Hasta que no te podrán deportar
Así es
En este party in the USA

[Coro]
Venimos a estudiar
Queremos trabajar
Y aunque lo quieran negar
Todos somos Americanos
Venimos a estudiar
Queremos trabajar
Y aunque nos quieran quebrar
Ya tenemos green card

[Interludio Instrumental]

[Puente]
(And remember, kids, the way to build an economy on a disposable work force is to invite them to do the work and then kick 'em out when the work is done)
(That way they can't unionize?)
(Now you're catching on)

[Interludio Instrumental]

[Coro]
Venimos a estudiar
Queremos trabajar
Aunque lo quieran negar
Todos somos Americanos
Venimos a estudiar
Queremos trabajar
Y aunque nos quieran quebrar
Nos la van a pelar
Venimos a estudiar
Queremos trabajar
(No se dejen vencer, por esa pinche pared)
