Morissette, Alanis - 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

    I realize, middle age male is not in Alanis's "demographic", But, I am smitten with this woman. What a powerful song! I love how ebbs & flows, A ripple that rolls in to a tidal wave. Once again Alanis's music and lyrics have, Expanded my vocabulary, and left me wiser having heard it.
    PS Meeting Alanis is on my bucket list.

    @rainskyrun i dont see it

  44. G.... S....

    This is ridiculously awesome! But I wanted to share - I've watched this many times - and I'm sure this was by design, but - the image is not a still image. You can see her eyes turn red and then diminish. And if you watch very closely you will see the image rock side to side by about one pixel. Also discovered in this song, if you listen closely, you can hear her humming/moaning - whatever you want to call it, in the background, adding richness to the sound. Awesome!! Thank you. :D

  45. R.... R....

    this is SOOOOO AWESOME ! i used 2 listen 2 it everyday
