Illegal alien - Genesis

The lyric of 'Illegal alien' are a humorous depiction of the frustrations an illegal immigrant faces, leading up to the chorus: 'It's no fun/Being an illegal alien'. Even though the lyrics are intended as a satire and to be taken in jest, it can easily be misinterpreted as making light of the problem of illegal immigrants.

The single did not chart in many countries, but did reach number 46 in the UK singles chart.

My collection: 7" single no. 4371
Found: Concerto, Amsterdam, December 30, 2009
Cost: 1 euro
