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 you don't believe that
You're part of their game
The bell rings and you come out
Fightin' just the same, yeah

Whoa yeah, whoa 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 thе pace or they tell ya, buddy, plеase step down
There may be a smile and a shake of the hand
But it's policy to take you anyway they can
It's everybody lookin' out for number one, understand

Whoa yeah, whoa yeah
It's alright, welcome to the world
I said it's alright, welcome to the world
It's alright, welcome to the world
Yeah
It's alright, welcome to the world
It's alright, welcome to the world
It's alright, welcome to the world, yeah
It's alright, welcome to the world
