The ChiCKeN wiRe fENce: Green Day
Welcome to Paradise
Dear Mother,
Can't you here me whining?
It's been three whole weeks
since I left your home
This sudden fear has left me trembling
'Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
And I'm feeling so alone
Pay attention to the cracked streets
and the broken homes
Some call it slums, some call it nice
I want to take you through a wasteland
I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise
A gunshot rings out at the station
Another urchin snaps and
left dead on his own
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now feeling like my home
and I'm never gonna go
Pay attention to the cracked streets
and the broken homes
Some call it slums, some call it nice
I want to take you through a wasteland
I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise
{LONG instrumental}
Dear mother,
can you hear me laughing?
It's been six months since I have left you home
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now feeling like my home
and I'm never gonna go
Pay attention to the cracked streets
and the broken homes
Some call it slums, some call it nice
I want to take you through a wasteland
I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise
Oh, paradise
