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
