Can You Get Me Out Of Here

Lyrics

Mothers, brothers, daughters, falling in love
 I'm here with flowers in time for the wedding
 I'll sleep in strange bedding
 Right next to my cousins, who's mother is my cousin, too
 And I meet, new strangers, they say "it's your mom's youngest brother"
 Who works for a place that pays him great wages
 I'll listen in stages
 And Aunt says "make money"
 She speaks to me in broken English today
 Can you get me out of here, and leave this all behind?
 Can you get me out of here, and leave this all behind?
 Can you get me out of here, and leave this all behind?
 Can you get me out of here
 I still have fear, they'll welcome me, with another cheer
 And sadly I never learned how to speak other
 Than what my friend's sputtered
 Aloud in the Korean language class
 Wasted on my ignorance
 To be part of the American way and I say
 "Korea I'm lost and I wish I was found"
 And I may never see Auntie again
 She cries at the airport, I fly back to my port
 Where safety is granted to me, don't you see?
 Can you get me out of here, and leave this all behind?
 Can you get me out of here, and leave this all behind?
 Can you get me out of here, and leave this all behind?
 Can you get me out of here
 I'll still have fear, they'll welcome me, with another cheer
