Lyrics
What do I get out of it?
What do I get out of it?
You can come and stay a bit, but what do I get out of it?
Can you cook? Can you clean?
Are you hot enough to be on a magazine?
Can you mow my lawn? Do you have a degree?
Well, it's useless here, sorry, honey
Mona, 33, escaped a war in Tripoli
A doctor in her country, wow
Can she do my laundry now?
What do I get out of it?
What, what do I get out of it?
You can come and stay a bit, but what do I get out of it?
If you want to stay here, you got to pay to play, dear
And if you can't afford to pay, we can find another way
Salma, 22, works in a sweatshop making shoes
Fears for her life because she's queer
Believes that she'll be safer here
What do I get out of it?
What, what do I get out of it?
You can come and stay a bit, but what do I get out of it?
Liam, 43, does data at HSBC
Lives in London half the year
But wants to purchase three homes here
Faduma and Anahlia fled famine in Somalia
Can't afford their legal fees
Should they be allowed to eat?
You can't stay undeservedly
Get on your knees and service me
Grab a broom, babe, don't be rude
It's called indentured servitude
Well, look who's back, it's Mona, Salma, Faduma, and Anahlia
Didn't we tell you to go back to where you came from?
You want to appeal your case? Hmm, well
What do I get out of it?
What, what do I get out of it?
You can come and stay a bit, but what do I get out of it?
This song is dedicated to all my dusty bitches
My bad, dirty bitches, my stank hoe ass bitches
Who can't seem to talk about immigrants without asking what it does for them
