MANZANAR (SANDO)

MAN’S VOICE ON THE EVENING NEWS
SNEAK ATTACK ON OAHU
MUCH FEAR OVERCOMES THIS NATION
PRESIDENTIAL PROCLAMATION
NO TIME TO PACK YOUR BAGS
HEAR THEM KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR

XENOPHOBIC RETRIBUTION
NO REGARD FOR THE CONSTITUTION
ROUND THEM UP TAKE THEM AWAY
NEVER LIKED THEM ANYWAY
CHECK IN AT THE RAILWAY GATE
SEND THEM OFF TO MANZANAR

(REFRAIN) MANZANAR
THEY WILL FOREVER WEAR THE SCAR
FOR THE CRIME OF WHO THEY ARE
THEY SPEND THREE YEARS IN MANZANAR

ROOF LEAKS AND THE WALLS ARE THIN
COOPED UP BOXED IN
CAN’T BREATH CAN’T EAT
CAN’T SLEEP IN THE DUST AND THE HEAT
NEW MORNING PLEDGE THE FLAG
LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL

NIGHT FALLS AND THE GUARDS ARE TENSE
WATCH TOWERS AND A BARBED WIRE FENCE
SEARCHLIGHT A MAN BREAKS OUT
GUNS AIMED SOMEBODY SHOUTS
STAY BACK LAY LOW
ANOTHER DAY AT MANZANAR

(REFRAIN)

IN THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN
A NEW DAY HAS JUST BEGUN
NO NEED FOR NEGOTIATION
NUCLEAR ERADICATION
LITTLE BOY FAT MAN
300,000 DEAD AND GONE

WORD COMES DOWN FROM THE POWERS THAT BE
BREAK IT DOWN SET THEM FREE
BUS TICKET AND 25 BUCKS
HAND SHAKE GOOD LUCK
EVERYTHING THEY OWNED IS GONE
WHERE DO THEY GO FROM MANZANAR
