AAPI Heritage Month Song

Its AAPI Heritage Month and its time to appreciate Asians
The Month of May is here, so lets start the celebrations

Asian Pacific Americans salute the stars & stripes, Instead of one common country of origin, we have 800 crazy types
So if you feel like the only kid in town whose name is Nguyen, Kim, Patel, or Lee
Heres a list of people who are Asian, just like you and meee

Poreotix, Jabbawockeez, a tribe called Quest, you know them Asian super crews are Americas best
Kevjumba is Asian, Nigahiga is too, happyslip is quite flip, and theyre not wu tang, theyre wong fu
Nicole, Cheryl & Carrie Anne on Dancing with the Stars, w/ Kate whose 8 adorable kids will have 8 emotional scars
Kristi Yamaguchi and Michelle Kwan my parents would be happy if I married either one

Masi Oka, James Kyson Lee, Sendhil Ramamurthy, We are Heroes, Just like Yao Ming, Troy Polamalu and Ichiro
Indra and Andrea are superwomen CEOs, Michelle Rhee is educating DC and I heard shes dating Ne-yo!
Some people think Michelle Malkin & Rob Schneider are, theyre not really but guess who are, the cast of Avatar
So Many Asians are in show biz Brangelina isnt, but I heard their babies is?

Its AAPI Heritage Month and its time to appreciate Asians
The month of May is here, so lets start the celebrations

Dr. Sanjay Gupta and Fareed Zakaria, and two intrepid journalists exposing North Korea
NAASCON, ECAASU & the UC System, Lambdas, Kappas, KD-phis, so many I cant list em
High school kids in South Philly and immigrant mothers, marching in rallies with our Latino sisters & brothers
Harold & Kumar went to white castle now John Chos the new Sulu and Kalpen is in the White House!

Pinay, thai, khmer, desi, hmong and hapa, got counted in the census, along with Angry Asian Mans umma & oppa
Sarah Palin Not Asian. But guess who is, 3 Cabinet Secretaries: Governor Locke, Steven Chu & General Eric Shinseki
Party Starter Annabel Park, Yul Kwon, DCs newest resident, one of these Koreans will be the first Asian-American President!
Hawaii & Indonesia make Obama a very Asian biracial black man Hes the most popular politician on the planet, after Pac-Man!!!

Its AAPI Heritage Month and its time to appreciate Asians
The Month of May is here, so lets start the celebrations

Buy your tickets for Tim Be Told & the International Secret Agents
Audition for Kollaboration and join the Sulu Nation!
Stop the raids and deportations of our families who need reunification
Remember that Americas foundation was built on immigration
So tell your friend Soledad and Erica, its time to celebrate Asians in America
There's no Asian American politician gayer than California's youngest mayor

I'm so happy the Situation is an Italian, and not Asian
So drink your libations and smoke your medications

Its time to celebrate the ASIANS Happy AAPI Heritage Month

@capricornbaby73 - Yah, I was worried people might think that I didn't know, but I intended to refer to Quest Crew that way. I'm a fan of Tribe as well, and it just sounded better to me than saying "a crew called Quest" - but I might just do that in the future. Thanks for the feedback! -Brian

A Tribe Called Quest? You mean Quest Crew? ATCQ is a rap group.
