Flat Wall Experiment

Plan A:
Build the wall high; build it strong and thick.
Made of the strongest mortar and brick.
But leave the door open.
To vent evil out and keep goodness in.
I think the real problem exists.
With the Mexican government.
For hundreds of years, abusing its citizens.
I say march on Mexico City by the millions.
Wave freedom banners, Sierra Nevada high.
To take back your country-clean out the Stys.
Fight for your children - fight for your rights.
Prosperity and self-worth are on the golden horizon.
     
If that doesn't work, there is a plan B.
Tear down the wall; let everyone be.
No matter their background, no matter their intent.
Everyone deserves a third or fourth chance.
Let them in -Let them in - let them in.

As a matter of fact, tear down every wall.
Mingle cultures and races, we may just have a ball.
Or it might turn into history's biggest damn brawl.
