The Blue Marble and the New Soul lyrics

Welcome to planet Earth

Tread your steps carefully

For the ground can twist and turn

Tread your steps carefully

For the ground may twist and turn

Choose your friends wisely

For just when you think you know someone

They could abandon you with scorn

Oh little one

Your mother will hold you in her arms

Your father will teach you his dignity and charm

Welcome to planet hate

To this emotion that I berate

Yet some people force me to feed my violent seed

What have we become?

The damage remains and cannot be undone

Oh little one

Your brother may stab you in the back and laugh

Your sister will love you unconditionally

As all life should be

What have we become?

The damage remains and cannot be undone

[Solo]

Stare into the sky with newborn perfect eyes

Oh little one enjoy your time

There will be heartache there will be rain

And joy I can't explain

My precious little one, explore your time

Your mother will hold you in her arms and smile

Your father will teach you his dignity and charm
