Ice In The Night Lyrics

Cobra Skull Ice In The Night

ICE in the night - ICE in the night
Didn’t know he had to hide and he was taken
Taken by surprise
By the ICE in the night

Manuel could never do another man harm
I know him well from working on the family farm
Most of his life and all of my life

But don’t bother telling the I.C.E. “Tiene Tarjeta”
But a green card don’t mean a thing
Next to brown skin and a Spanish accent

ICE in the night - ICE in the night
Came a-knocking with a warrant
But the warrant wasn’t signed
What a violation of our rights
Thanks to the ICE in the night

Stepping off the plane in a camp down in Texas
Airfare provided by American taxes
That I hate to pay and he pays everyday

But don’t worry Manny, we’ll soon have you back at home
We’ve already got the family lawyers on the phone
But it’s hard to tell your daughter she’s got to go to school
When her house has been invaded
And her father’s been kidnapped
Kidnapped by

ICE in the night - ICE in the night
Didn’t know he had to hide and he was taken
Taken by surprise
By the ICE in the night

Legally a resident, lawfully employed
How many other innocent lives have been destroyed?
Destroyed by

ICE in the night - ICE in the night
Chains from his hands to his feet made it hard to run
And hard to fight
The ICE in the night
