Stephen Clair - Welcome to the World Now Lyrics

Everybody's lining up to get on the dole
Without leaving the house or going to school
They pulled another trillion outta thin air
While I barely have the gumption to cut my own hair

Welcome to the world now
It's something new pal
We're no longer waiting for
The other shoe
It came off easy
It nearly hit me
So I just ran inside, hoping to stay alive, and I went online, to tell the whole grapevine
Welcome to the world now

Nobody's saying what they really think
But they're blowing up the internet meeting for drinks
You can see where this is heading it's like we've all gone to heaven
Happy hour with your best friends, twenty-four seven

Welcome to the world now
It's something new pal
We're no longer waiting for
The other shoe
It came off easy
It nearly hit me
So I just ran inside, like a bee to a hive, called the mayor's hotline, he was out for a Drive
Welcome to the world now

There's people on the front line risking their lives
While the government goes on polishing their knives
Most of us are stuck home but we've got TV
And who knew wine delivery is free

Welcome to the world now
It's something new pal
We're no longer waiting for
The other shoe
It came off easy
It nearly hit me
So I just ran inside, hoping to stay alive, I'd even settle for a blush wine
Welcome to the world now

How will anybody fall in love over zoom
I think it already happened a zoom bride and groom
A little disembodied but I love you for your mind
Honey could you stand where I can see you in the light

Welcome to the world now
It's something new pal
We're no longer waiting for
The other shoe
It came off easy
It nearly hit me
So I ran inside, set my mind, to dreaming up a new headline
Welcome to the world now
