lirik lagu irene sankoff and david hein - welcome to the rock
[claude, spoken]
on the north-east tip of north america
on an island called newfoundland
there’s an airport
it used to be one of the biggest airports in the world
and next to it is a town called gander
(sung)
welcome to the rock if you come from away (huh!)
you probably understand about a half of what we say (huh!)
they say no man’s an island, but an island makes a man
[claude & beulah]
‘specially when one comes from one like newfoundland
[company]
welcome to the rock!
[beulah, spoken]
that mornin’ i’m in the cl-ssroom
it’s our first day back and the school buses are on strike!
so, i’m covering for annette who’s running late
[annette, spoken]
sorry, beulah! how’s the kids?
[beulah, spoken]
not exactly thrilled to be inside on such a gorgeous day
so, i told ’em we’d only have a half day this mornin’
and they were quite pleased
until i told ’em we’d have the other half in the afternoon!
[actor 8]
welcome to the wildest weather that you ever heard of!
[doug]
where everyone is nice, but it’s never nice above
[annette]
welcome to the farthest place you’ll get from disneyland
[claude]
fish ‘n chips and shipwrecks
[women & claude]
this is newfoundland
[company]
welcome to the rock!
an islander, i am an islander
i’m an islander, i am an islander
i’m an islander, i am an islander
i’m an islander, i am an islander
[oz, spoken]
that mornin’ i’m in my car
the kids cross airport boulevard to get to school
and that time of day people are in a little bit of a rush
to get to work and stuff
so, normally i sit there and run my radar (whoop! whoop!)
and if they’re speeding i’ll stop ’em
and write out a warning ticket
i’ll write s-t-f-d:
“slow the f-ck down!”
[actor 2]
welcome to the land where the winters tried to k!ll us
and we said:
[company]
we will not be k!lled!
[actor 9]
welcome to the land where the waters tried to drown us
and we said:
[company]
we will not be drowned!
[janice]
welcome to the land where we lost our loved ones
and we said:
[company]
we will still go on!
[actor 10]
welcome to the land where the wind tried to blow!
[company]
and we said no!
[bonnie, spoken]
that mornin’ i drop my kids off at school and head to the spca
where i’m greeted by my other kids
all barkin’ and meowin’ for breakfast and a belly rub
not that i’m complaining, i loves them
but by the time feeding’s done
i got to get back to pick up my human kids
so i take just one second for myself and i’m sitting in my car
[annette, spoken]
i’m in the library
[beulah, spoken]
i’m in the staff room
[annette, beulah, & bonnie, spoken]
and i turn on the radio
[company]
you are here
at the start of a moment
on the edge of the world
where the river meets the sea
here
on the edge of the atlantic
on an island in between
there and here
[oz, spoken & company, sung]
i’m an islander
i’m an islander
i’m an islander
i’m an islander
i’m an islander
i’m running my radar when bonnie comes by
she pulls up
and she is waving at me like mad
so i roll down my window
and she says
[bonnie, spoken]
oz, turn on the radio
[company]
i’m an islander
[oz, spoken]
slow it down, bonnie
[company]
i’m an islander
[bonnie, spoken]
jesus h, oz! turn on your radio!
[company]
i’m an islander
where our story starts
[janice, spoken]
it’s my first day at the station
[company]
where we’ll end the night
[bus driver, spoken]
i’m gettin’ coffee for the picket line
[company]
where we know by heart
[crystal]
five minutes ’til my smoke break
[company]
every single flight
[dwight]
i’m off to work at the airport
[men]
welcome to the fog
welcome to the trees
to the ocean and the sky
and whatever’s in between
to the ones who’ve left
you’re never truly gone
a candle’s in the window
and the kettle’s always on
[company]
when the sun is coming up
and the world has come ash0r-
if you’re hoping for a harbour
then you’ll find an open door
in the winter, from the water
through whatever’s in the way
to the ones who have come from away
welcome to the rock!
