Alanis Morissette "Citizen of the Planet" lyrics

Translation to:elesfritpttr

Citizen of the Planet

I start up in the northI grow from a special seedI sprinkle it with sensibilityFrom French and Hungarian snowI linger in the sproutingUntil my engine's full

Then I move across the seaTo European blissTo language of poetsAs I cut the cord of homeI kiss my mother's motherLook to the horizon

Wide eyed, new groundHumbled by my new surroundings

I am a citizen of the planetMy president is Kuan YinMy frontier is on an airplaneMy prisons, homes for rehabilitating

Then I fly back to my restI fly back with my nuclearBut everything is differentSo I waitMy yearn for home is broadenedPatriotism expandedBy callings from beyond

So I pack my thingsNothing preciousAll things sacred

I am a citizen of the planetMy laws are all of attractionMy punishments are consequencesSeparating from source the original sin

I am a citizen of the planetDemocracy's kids are sovereignWhere the teachers are the sagesAnd pedestals filled with every parent

And so the next few years are blurryThe next decade's a flurryOf smells and tastes unknownThreads sewn straight through this fabricThrough fields of every colorOne culture to another

And I come aliveAnd I get giddyAnd I am taken and globally naturalized

I am a citizen of the planetFrom simple roots through high visionI am guarded by the angelsAnd my body guides the direction I go in

I am a citizen of the planetMy favorite pastime edge stretchingBesotten with human conditionThese ideals are born from my deepest within
