IMMIGRATION MAN    (Graham Nash) There I was at the immigration scene Shining and feeling clean Could it be a sin? I got stopped by the immigration man He says he doesn't know if he can Let me in-let me in-immigration man Can I cross the line and pray I can stay another day Let me in immigration man I won't toe your line today I can't see it anyway There he was with his immigration face Giving me a paper chase But the sun was coming Cos all at once he looked into my space And stamped a number over my face And he sent me running Let me in-let me in-immigration man Can I cross the line and pray I can stay another day Let me in immigration man I won't toe your line today I can't see it anyway Here I am with my immigration form It's big enough to keep me warm When a cold wind's coming So go where you will So long as you think you can You'd better watch out-watch out-for the man Anywhere you're going Won't you let me in immigration man Can I cross your line and pray Take your fingers from the tray Let me in-irritation man I won't toe your line today I can't see it anyway "Graham Nash/David Crosby"   1971
