Planet Earth
Welcome! to Planet Earth
Where entrance is for free
But if you stay,and who you are
Will be a postcode lottery
Come right in and look around
There is so much to see
The fields of green
The mountains high
The beautiful deep blue sea.
You could reside on land
With a sunburnt sky
Or live amid the forest trees
You could camp on ice
Beneath snowy peaks
Or linger by the seas.
You could be black
You could be white
Yellow, red or brown
Have wealth or not
You just won't know
Until they put you down
You could toil on land
Or fish at sea
Or maybe live in luxury.
Famine fear and bigotry
Or misery galore
A hint of happiness here and there
Could be what in store.
Tears, joy,laughter,pain
You'll experience all these things
So take a gamble if you dare
And lose you angel wings.
