Chip Godwin – Finally Arrived lyrics

They say the second that you're born
Your future's all been pre-arranged
Nine months inside the love machine
We hit the ground like drops of rain.

Now you can tramp an altered course
Or you can roll with destiny,
It won't be in your hands of course,
Whatever's meant to be will be,

But I say let's give it one last push
Let's force their hand, I'll count to three
Roll up your sleeves boys, this is it
Can I get a drumroll please?
I'm coming 'round the bend.
I've got my head all full of steam
Got my rivals turning green.
Hey, hey! Look at me!
I got a multi-colored coat
In honor of my golden throat.
So nice to finally arrive,
And look I made it here.

Bend and change and twist and shift
I swear I had a plan for this
But the wind don't blow, the buttress slips
We're really all but sailing ships.
These are the days of prophecy,
Of changing tides and falling leaves,
With eyes fixed on your prize of prizes
Immunity to their disease.

And I say let's give it one last push
Let's force their hand, I'll count to three
Roll up your sleeves boys, this is it
Can I get a drumroll please?
I'm coming 'round the bend.
I've got my head all full of steam
Got my rivals turning green.
Hey, hey! Look at me!
I got a multi-colored coat
In honor of my golden throat.
So nice to finally arrive,
And look I made it here.

What are you waiting for?
They're all awaiting your command.
You took a trip from a college classroom
To the bottom of a garbage can.
But this is your big surprise,
And it's never been done before,
Just hitch a ride inside these eyes
And see a world you've never seen before.

For passion sake we exercise our human right to vanity
We'll seek the truth behind the lies and sacrifice our privacy
I want you to get what you deserve
And you to let your choice be heard
And you to put those weapons down,
Yeah, lay 'em right down on the ground.

And come on! Let's give it one last push
Let's force their hand, I'll count to three
Roll up your sleeves boys, this is it
Can I get a drumroll please?
I'm coming 'round the bend.
I've got my head all full of steam
Got my rivals turning green.
Hey, hey! Look at me!
I got a multi-colored coat
In honor of my golden throat.
So nice to finally arrive,
And look I made it here.

So nice to finally arrive.
And look I made it here.
