Back to Earth Songtext
von Greg Graffin

He wakes with the glow
Of adventure and hope
The morning smells sweet
And replete with opportunity

He dressed into another day
Feeling lucky to be alive
Though nobody follows him
He′s sure the future's bright

Bring him back
Someone′s going to have to bring him back to Earth
He's getting out of hand
His alacrity for life is more than people stand
Bring him back to Earth

Discipline and toil
Well, it made her blood boil
The finer things were impatient
Waiting discovery


Like a bird in spring
The sun made her sing
With seeming inattention
She was on to other things

Bring her back
Someone's going to have to bring her back to Earth
She′s way too high
Her alacrity for life ain′t going to help her get by
Bring her back to Earth

Who's it going to be?
I can assure you
It ain′t gonna be me

Bring them back
Someone's gonna try and bring them back to land
And I′ll be there
To catch them when they fall and send them up again
Bring them back to Earth
Bring them back to Earth
