Welcome Back

(cento)

Two trailer park girls go 
‘round the outside,
and eleven long haired friends of 
Jesus in a chartreuse MicroBus—
you wanna put that MicroBus in 
behind that suicide jockey.

Round and round 
and up and down;
You'll find it happens all the time.

It’s all right to go to a party,
It’s all right to have some fun.
No use of you running 
or screaming and crying;
Everybody over here, 
everybody over there.

Everything changes.
Nothing looks the same 
through the eyes of love.
You've got to spread joy 
up to the maximum.

Yeah, I probably got a
couple of screws 
up in my head loose, but…

Jesus loves the little children,
All the children of the world.

Remember when you ran away
And I got on my knees and begged you
Not to leave because I'd go beserk?

Well, the names have all changed
Since you hung around, but—
Speak to the sky 
whenever things go wrong and 
I’ll paint rainbows all over your blues.
