W.W.J.D. (Who Would Jesus Deport)?

He sent Jeff to the border
Trying to force order
Violence is not the last resort
He asks when he prays
Who would Jesus deport?

Hiding behind laws
Craving more applause
Everything that's done is to distort
If he'd ask if he'd pray
Who would Jesus deport?

Remember the Sermon on the Mount
When Jesus said to throw refugees out

Some will criticize
Breaking family ties
And claiming a jail is a resort
They ask when they pray
Who would Jesus deport?

Those who could step in
Just stammer and grin
And say it's all in someone else's court
They'd ask if they'd pray
Who would Jesus deport?

When Jesus said love thy neighbor as thyself
He meant literally the house next door and nowhere else

The weak he vilifies
Then he just denies
He'll play up all the bigotry he'll exhort
So ask when you pray
Who would Jesus deport?

And now he's made a mess
By trying to suppress
And make it all a kangaroo court
You can ask if you pray
Who would Jesus deport?
Who would Jesus deport?
Who would Jesus
Who would Jesus
Who would Jesus deport?
