The Border Patrol Lyrics

The line across the country hates
Trespassers and makes us wait
We had no real choice but to melt in the sun

Counted out my stickers one by one
Then they called me a dumb American
We were really hooping along there
Until we hit cust- until we hit customs

The border patrol they didn't show us no love
Show us no love
Love
The border patrol they didn't show us no love
Show us no love
Love

Toronto show was a huge bum out
But Montreal was like soap in Chris's mouth
Speaking of which, don't mouth off to them
Now next time we're targeted
The next time we're through I bet

The border patrol they didn't show us no love
Show us no love
Love
The border patrol they didn't use
Use

Do you have your passports?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

LOL They hated driving to all the states and going to the border patrol because it slowed them down.
