Welcome 2 America Song Lyrics Does anyone know the lyrics to Welcome 2 America? I've figured out some if them, but I can't make out what's being said on some parts. If this was already in a thread, just point me in the right direction. Thanks! | |

I didn't know this was a song. What does it sound like? What genre of music? "Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion" -- Martha Graham | |

He's been playing it at some of the W2A concerts. It sounds like funk to me. Hmmm, so no one has written down the lyrics? I was hoping that folks copied down the lyrics like they did for Gingerbread Man. | |

There have been a few different versions. As quoted by "L4OATheOriginal" from another post:
welcome 2 america welcome 2 america
welcome 2 america where u can get hired get fired and get 7 million dollars somebody is watching u welcome 2 america welcome 2 america we still got a lot 2 learn about race relations if ur in the mood 4 drama inbetween 911 and hurricane katrina and the election of barack obama somebody's watching u big brother is still in effect and if ur still getting hassled at the airport just remember who u elected welcome 2 america welcome 2 america
watching u watching me where the teachers only tell u half of what they know just 2 not keep u free now they got u wanting 2 drink some tea who me? the past 7 presidents b4 george washington making history i don't care what sly said everybody ain't a star ain't no one on rolling stone cover the big star is dead y'all
The above tends to be the closest to actual 'lyrics' whereas the one I saw on February 7 was a few words said to a different tune, but which may have been taken from the song itself. This one was put to the same riff as his song "100MPH" and was something along the lines of:
Welcome 2 america | |

Thanks. I also think that he said "molested at the airport" instead of "hassled at the airport." Those were some of the few lyrics I could actually make out. Thanks again! [Edited 4/10/11 19:13pm] | |
