Welcome home dearest friend come sit back and just relax

Tell your tales of your trails of your trip’s tricky tracks

But before you do we think you might appreciate a drink

And after some of those you’ll say it’s like I’ve never been away

Welcome home dearest friend for too long we had to yearn

For the day of your return welcome home welcome home

On the dismal day you went away you left us in despair

Knowing that if you’d be needed you would not be there

We suffered from debilitating existential fear

For any time you would come handy you would not be here

But from the second you were back and walked through the door

We started feeling better than we ever did before

Welcome home dearest friend come sit back and just relax

Tell your tales of your trails of your trip’s tricky tracks

But before you do we think you might appreciate a drink

And after some of those you’ll say it’s like I’ve never been away

Welcome home dearest friend for too long we had to yearn

For the day of your return welcome home welcome home

And it wasn’t only us who in your absence felt the pain

All of our nation started going down the drain

With rampant crime and chaos and corruption in excess

And anarchy and dislocation yes it’s been a mess

But now that we are reunited with you here today

We’re seeing hearing feeling resurrection on it’s way

Welcome home dearest friend come sit back and just relax

Tell your tales of your trails of your trip’s tricky tracks

But before you do we think you might appreciate a drink

And after some of those you’ll say it’s like I’ve never been away

Welcome home dearest friend for too long we had to yearn

For the day of your return welcome home welcome home
