So it seems you been runnin in circles

Now you can't even get to first base

& you feel like the tide has turned against you

Welcome to the human race

So you feel like the gods are out to get you

You feel like you've fallen from grace

& you'd run again if they'd only let you

Welcome to the human race

Welcome to the human race



So your prophets of finance have fallen

On their collective proverbial face

And you hear muffled voices callin

Welcome to the human race

You made a killin dealin real estate at NASA

Sellin cemetery plots in outer space

Til some fallin coffins crashed upon your doorstep

Welcome to the human race

Welcome to the human race

Open up your heart...



So you sold your ocean home ain't that a pity

And your mermaids disappeared without a trace

Now you comb the streets of sandcastle city

Welcome to the human race

Now sometimes the truth is hard to handle

But lately it's much easier to face

We'll just write it off as just another scandal

Welcome to the human race

Welcome to the human race

Welcome to the human race

Open up your heart
