Welcome to Earth

Welcome to Earth

You may be wondering what kind of planet you're on

Don't be afraid

of all of the thundering sounds that you hear when you're born

Those are the hands of a competent stranger

Patiently gripping your head

Pulling you out of your fortunate mother

Tucked safe in a hospital bed

You have two parents who

Love and take care of you

You are a fortunate child

Some of the rest will be born into poverty

Their life will sure be a trial

No food or water a new baby daughter

Came spilling forth in the world

But then as forth she went

She was unfortunate

Life will be hard for you girl

Welcome to Earth

It's a tough place to live

Unless by some accident of your birth

Your outlook is positive

Sun's gonna shine

Wind's gonna blow

Welcome to Earth

Please enjoy the show

You may be wondering

Who is this singing and why should I listen to him?

I'm not the messiah

I could be a liar

And God knows you'll meet some of them

I was like you and then slowly I grew until

Now I'm a voice in a song

I hope you'll be kind in your heart and your mind

Now I've got to be riding along

Welcome to Earth

It's a tough place to live

Unless by some accident of your birth

Your outlook is positive

Sun's gonna shine

Wind's gonna blow

Welcome to Earth

Please enjoy the show

Welcome to Earth my friend

Please enjoy the show
