Prince

Welcome 2 America


Welcome

Welcome to America
Where you can fail at your job, get fired, rehired
And get a seven hundred billion dollar tip
Come on in, sit right down
And fill up your pockets, yeah
Mass media, information overload
Welcome to America
(The following message is brought to you by Viacom)
Distracted by the features of the iphone
(Got an application for each of situation)
In other words, taken by a pretty face
Somebody's watching you (I see you, I see you)
Welcome to America
Hook up later [?] ipad
And we can meet at my place (welcome to America)

Welcome (welcome to America)
Welcome to America

Where everything and nothing that Google says is hip
(The sales tax for the following items
will be raised immediately... cigarettes...)
We will not raise your taxes
Read our lips

Welcome to America (America)
Welcome to the big show (to America)
Everybody's looking for something
When there ain't no place to go (welcome to America)
Except inside America (America)
That's the only place I know (to America)
Transformation happens deep within: yes or no?
Yes

Welcome to America
One of our greatest exports was a thing called jazz
You think today's music will last?
(Dismantle all monopolies
Dismantle all monopolies)
Welcome to America

Welcome
Hope and change, everything takes forever
And truth is a new minority (truth)
Oh, welcome to America
Welcome to America

Today we'd like to discuss America's plan
to fix the educational system
The pledge of allegiance will now read as follows
I pledge allegiance
to the earth of the United States of the Universe
Welcome to America

There is no arguing with the book
(when am I gonna learn something new?)
There is no arguing with the book
(who's gonna teach it to me, you?)
There is no arguing with the book
(what's that [?] )
There is no (could it be?) arguing
(our free will?)

You say yes, I say no, yet love flows

America can provide many opportunities
for the young female
who wishes to work (for the state)
For her own advancement up
from the underclass to become one

Welcome to America
Go to school to become a celebrity
(F. A. M. O. U. S.) but don't be late
And everybody and they mama got a sex tape

Welcome to America
We snatch bass players, not purses
Keep playing, it gets worse

Land of the free, home of the brave
Oops, I mean
Land of the free, home of the slave
Get down on your knees

Welcome to America
Welcome to the big show
Everybody's looking for something
When there ain't no place to go
Except inside America
That's the only place I know
Transformation happens deep within: yes or no?
