Now it's ready or not

Boy, you better come on strong

Give it all you've got

'Cause they'll really turn the pressure on

And you find it strange

But it's so insane


When you know ya don't believe that

You're part of their game

The bell rings and you come out

Fightin' just the same, yeah


CHORUS

Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah

It's alright, welcome to the world

It's alright, welcome to the world

It's alright, welcome to the world

Yeah


In the marketplace

Nobody's foolin' around

And ya keep the pace

Or they tell ya, buddy, please step down


There may be a smile

Or a shake of the hand

But it's policy to take you

Anyway they can

And it's everybody lookin' out

For number one, understand


CHORUS


It's alright, welcome to the world
