lyrics

Curse my mother's name from the grids of the sea and two islands on the other side I don't drink milk with tea I am a yankee boy now and I traded brill for catfish you can't set sail in the midwest

I fucked my father's name I'm not the number one son I am not an IQ test worked at a sushi place I was the only Nippon and they put me on dishes all against their best interest

Well I don't like sushi anyways and my name is just a name ok try my best to save face cradled in the red states

Married to the West my loverly beast where I am swimming in opportunity and calories precious is the East they will crumble upon the marching of our cavalry my distinction's a commodity

Hiroshima was a foil for a Ben Affleck Teen-Choice Award try my best to save face I could pass as white any day

Grandma I am sorry but the dynasty is closing in its grip on me if I went home they'd cast me out and I don't wanna shave my beard Japanese girls don't like beards

Hey mama I'm a yankee now!
