Hollywood Meets Bollywood (immigration) Lyrics - Carnival Ii: Memoirs Of An Immigrant - Wyclef Jean

Good morning, America 

I wanna welcome y'all to Egypt, the land of the Pyramids, yeah 

We got the UK in the house, U.S., India 

Jerusalem, people in Israel, shalom 

In the New Jerusalem, Jersey, ya heard me? 

China, Africa, South America 

My people in Russia, I see y'all in Brooklyn 

Canada, Asia, okay, let's go, yeah 

Hollywood to Bollywood 

Get ready India, I'm comin' 

Wyclef, Chamillionaire, talk to them 

Bounce when you hear the sound of them sirens 

Bounce when they pull them guns 'cause they firin' 

Whoa, mucho trabajo, poquito di-ne-ro 

I can't take this no more

I've got to bounce, ah-ma-na-mahh, na-ma-na-mahh-ya-lalee 

Bounce, when you're on the run you'll get numb see 

Whoa, let me help you, amigo 

Hollywood meet Bollywood and Brooklyn on the drums 

Marco Polo was an immigrant, yes, he was 

Columbus was an immigrant, yes, he was 

Even America was named after an immigrant, yes, he was 

People in the East, right here 

People in the West, right here 

People in the North, right here 

Let me tell you 'bout the South 

Harriet Tubman, underground, underground railroad 

ReFugees, in de seas, see them in they sailboats 

I got love for Miami all day 

But if my Cubans get to stay, why y'all turn my Haitians away?

Immigration knockin' at my do' 

I don't know what they knockin' fo' 

It's so hard to live as illegal aliens 

Talk to 'em 

Ladies and gents 

Bollywood meet Hollywood 

You in the middle 

Back to Cairo 

Bounce when you hear the sound of them sirens 

Bounce when they pull them guns 'cause they firin' 

Whoa, mucho trabajo, poquito di-ne-ro 

I can't take this no more 

I've got to bounce, ah-ma-na-mahh, na-ma-na-mahh-ya-lalee 

Bounce, when you're on the run you'll get numb see 

Whoa, let me help you, amigo 

Hollywood meet Bollywood and Brooklyn on the drums 

Partner named True, did you say he was next? 

Tell him let's better, rally aimin' to get 

No green card but he made it to Tex-as 

Yes, they evadin' arrest 

You need one he can get you three 

Never gettin' caught was his specialty 

Livin' life like he was a ReFugee 

Didn't like him, give a F U C K 

Ay man, he had to chase it 

Clock kept tickin' so he had to race it 

Had to make it, back to basics 

Followin' the law, naw, had to break it 

Can't get a job, no applications 

Need money now, no havin' patience 

Now they got him runnin' in faster paces 

You lookin' through the water, hey, that's The Matrix 

Immigration knockin' at my do' 

I don't know what they knockin' fo' 

It's so hard to live as illegal aliens 

Bounce, when you hear the sound of them sirens 

Bounce, when they pull them guns 'cause they firin' 

Whoa, mucho trabajo, poquito di-ne-ro 

I can't take this no more 

I've got to bounce, ah-ma-na-mahh, na-ma-na-mahh-ya-lalee 

Bounce, when you're on the run you'll get numb see 

Whoa, let me help you, amigo 

Hollywood meet Bollywood and Brooklyn on the drums 

Ladies and gentlemen, straight from Bombay 

You experiencin' the great composer Ab'dish 

When Wyclef show up for the first time 

Bollywood meet Hollywood 

Over two-hundred and fifty violins, let's go Haiti 

We everywhere, geyeah 

Caribbeans stand up, bring me my elephant 

You wanna hear me speak Punjabi? 

Okay, okay, what's next? 

Okay, okay, okay, yeah, yeah
