nativist nonsense

Charles Lindbergh figured Hitler was okay
the German government's not ours to choose
if he would cast their brightest minds away
let someone else accommodate the Jews
Americans adore celebrities
imputing wisdom that they never earned
false idols whom some worship on their knees
harsh lesson that we've somehow never learned
"America! comes First" Trump likes to  bleat
and few remember we've been here, before

but most who claim they're native have to cheat
their ancestors passed through that same bright door
t'would take a fool to slam that Golden Gate
it's immigrants that make our country great
