Civics Review

Coming to America
Once upon, there lived a little alien. He hoped
to one day live in the United States. So he got
in his ship and sailed on over. He decided to go
from an alien to an emmigrant. He had to live in
the US for 12 years and take the
Denaturalization Test. After he received his
censorship, his friend decided he wanted to
become a US citizen as well. Instead of waiting,
he climbed over the fence and got teleported
back to the mother ship.
