Текст песни Citizen of the Planet - Alanis Morissette

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 engines 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 Quan Yin
My frontier is not an airplane
My prison's home's 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
My calling's from beyond

So I pack my things
Nothing precious, all things sacred

I am a citizen of the planet
My laws are law of attraction
My punishments are consequences
Separating from source, the original
I am a citizen of the planet
Democracy's king-size sovereign
Where the teachers are the sages
And the pedestal's filled with every parent

And so, the next few years are blurry
The next decade's a flurry
Of smells and tastes unknown
And threads sewn straight through this fabric
Through fields of every color
One culture to another

And I come alive
And I get giddy
And I am taken and global electrolyzed

I am a citizen of the planet
From simple roots to high vision
I am guarded by the angels
And my body guides the direction I go in
I am a citizen of the planet
My favorite pastime is stretching
And starting with human connection
These ideals are born from my deepest within
