Lyrics

They don't want to see me as American See me on your TV as a terrorist All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man But here come ICE and that travel ban They don't want to see me as American The only ones who been here are my native friends All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man But here come ICE and that travel ban Why they gotta treat me like I'm alien? Why they acting like I'm not American? Why they so obsessed with what I'm wearing, man? Got me sweating under their surveillance Tryna regulate our bodies Got these men all in our face These ain't tighty-whities Wish they would evaporate Wall around the country They just tryna make it great They the caca from that shithole And their president is saying Throw some bleach on that bitch Throw some bleach on that bitch Tryna keep it white on white like them ones with the switch Throw some bleach in that bitch Throw some bleach in that bitch Tryna keep it white on white like a toilet full of shh... They don't want to see me as American See me on your TV as a terrorist All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man But here come ICE and that travel ban They don't want to see me as American The only ones who been here are my native friends All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man But here come ICE and that travel ban Riding the tide on some mega waves Afros and curly hair mega babes Shut down the beach, had a mega day We surfin around all the mega hate Imagine no kind of misogyny Where would I want no apologies Show all these foolish men how to be Gotta make my babies proud of me This burkini my sunblock This burkini my slingshot They Goliath, I'm that rock Try to stop me, I think not I'm so high on this sunbeam I shine bright, they can't run me Find me where the fun be Not everything gotta be upstream Throw some bleach on that bitch Throw some bleach on that bitch Tryna keep it white on white like the ones with the switch Throw some bleach in that bitch Throw some bleach in that bitch Tryna keep it white on white like a toilet full of shh... They don't want to see me as American See me on your TV as a terrorist All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man But here come ICE and that travel ban They don't want to see me as American The only ones who been here are my native friends All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man But here come ICE and that travel ban They don't want to see me (How come?) Instead of peace, they want policing (like for real?) So here I am all on your TV (Look at me) On that beach in my burkini (burkini!) They don't want to see me as American See me on your TV as a terrorist All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man But here come ICE and that travel ban They don't want to see me as American The only ones who been here are my native friends All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man But here come ICE and that travel ban Burkini!
