INTRO: * x8

VERSE 1:                                    
        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.

VERSE 2:                                   
        You're gonna fit me for that orange jumpsuit,
                                           
        Please don't fit me for that orange jumpsuit.
               * * * *                   
        Let me rise,    where the dragonflies fly.

CHORUS 1:                                            
         Yeah but you're going to do what you want to 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.

VERSE 3:                                 
        Big bus headed southeast from the courthouse.
                                             
        But I'm not headed southeast from the courthouse.
                                          
        Let some mysterious chunk of space debris
                                         * * * * 
        puncture the roof and set me free.  

VERSE 4:                           
        And even if I have to go to Clairmont.
                                            
        Well I guess I'll just have to go to Clairmont.
               * * 
        Let me go.
       * *               
        Let me lie low.

CHORUS 2:                                            
         Yeah but you're going to do what you want to 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.
