Citizen Of The Planet lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Citizen Of The Planet lyrics I start up in the north I grow from special seed I sprinkle it with sensibility from French and Hungarian snow I linger in the sprouting until my engine s full Then I move across the sea To European bliss To language of poets As I cut the cord of home I kiss my mother s mother look to the horizon wide eyed, new ground humbled by my new surroundings I am a citizen of the planet My president is kwan yin My frontier is on an airplane my prisons: homes for rehabilitating Then I fly back to my nest, I fly back with my nuclear but everything is different So I wait, my yearn for home is broadened, patriotism expanded by callings from beyond So I pack my things nothing precious all things sacred I am a citizen of the planet My laws are all of attraction My punishments are consequences Separating from source the original sin I am a citizen of the planet democracy s kids are sovereign Where the teachers are the sages And pedestals fill with every parent And so, the next few years are blurry, the next decade s a flurry of smells and tastes unknown Threads sewn straight through this fabric through fields of every color one culture to another I come alive and I get giddy I am taken and globally naturalized I am a citizen of the planet From simple roots through high vision I am guarded by the angels My body guides the direction I go in I am a citizen of the planet My favorite pastime edge stretching Besotten with human condition these ideals are borne from my deepest within song lyrics
