Adios, AOC & Ilhan

Adios, AOC & Ilhan

Adiós Amigos

[Verse 1]
Ilhan oh Ilhan where did you go
Dancing in the moonlight but the tide said no
Your dreams sailed away on a paper canoe
Alexandria cried but the sea laughed too

[Prechorus]
Coconuts whisper
They’re spilling the tea
The palm trees are swaying
They gossip ’bout we

[Chorus]
Adiós amigos
The ship’s leaving town
The anchors are heavy
We’re sinking down
Adiós amigos
The tide doesn’t wait
Pack up the drama
It’s time to vacate

[Verse 2]
AOC AOC your speeches so bright
But now the stars giggle in the tropical night
The parrots repeat what the headlines scream
The mangoes are sour
The guava lost its gleam

[Bridge]
Ilhan
Alexandria
What do we do
Deportation conga
It’s coming for you
In Somalian: Waxaan ku ordayaa badda dhexdeeda (I run through the ocean)
In Spanish: Pero el sol nunca olvida (But the sun never forgets)

[Chorus]
Adiós amigos
The ship’s leaving town
The anchors are heavy
We’re sinking down
Adiós amigos
The tide doesn’t wait
Pack up the drama
It’s time to vacate
