Welcome To The World

The man in the middle
had an alibi of sorts
He wasn’t near the bank
when robbed by cohorts
Behind bushy eyebrows
an unpredictable side
A mix of injustice
and callous male pride
So welcome to the world
it’s a good place to be
You know you owe me nothing
but nothing’s for free
You can't take it with you
so just let it be
You don't owe me nothing
and nothing's for free
Did he want a soul mate
or business partner?
She wasn’t quite sure
it didn’t really matter
Put her mind on lock down
at age twenty-four
Proudly passed at fifty
wouldn't open the door
So welcome to the world
it’s a good place to be
You know you owe me nothing
but nothing’s for free
You can't take it with you
so just let it be
You don't owe me nothing
and nothing's for free
Welcome to the show
let’s let the magic flow
Seems like it started
a long time ago
Shake off your shadow
watch a rainbow
Then join all the people
making all the dough
Swinging scales of justice
spun out of control
Then lawless bloodletting
took a sinister role
The vindictive ones are here
forgivers over there
What chance have forgivers
when evil’s in the square
So welcome to the world
it’s a good place to be
You know you owe me nothing
but nothing’s for free
You can't take it with you
so just let it be
You don't owe me nothing
and nothing's for free
He stepped into the world
hoped he’d be a winner
Now he’s gotten older
feels like a beginner
It’s hard to be young
when you start getting old
Up is tough, when down
why be scared when you’re bold?
So welcome to the world
it’s a good place to be
You know you owe me nothing
but nothing’s for free
You can't take it with you
so just let it be
You don't owe me nothing
and nothing's for free
