You're gonna send me back to where I came from
Please don't send me back to where I came from
Let me go where the white magnolias grow
ย
You're gonna fit me for that orange jumpsuit
Please don't fit me for that orange jumpsuit
Let me ride where the dragonflies glide
ย
Yeah but you're going to do what you wanna do
No matter what I ask of you
You think you hold the high hand
I've got my doubts
I come from Chino where the asphalt sprouts
ย
Big bus headed southeast from the courthouse
Well, I'm not headed southeast from the courthouse
Let some mysterious chunk of space debris
Puncture the roof and set me free
ย
And even if I have to go to Claremont
Well then, I guess I'll just have to go to Claremont
Let me go
Let me lie low
ย
Yeah but you're going to do what you wanna do
No matter what I ask of you
And you send your dark messengers to tempt me
I come from Chino, so all your threats are empty
ย
