The Lyrics
So the Village People are performing their classic hit "YMCA" for the inauguration; seems all things old are being made new again. Here's another rather fitting hit song from just a few years prior to that.
Welcome back!
You reamed that demented lout.
Welcome back!
Time to throw him and all his harlots out.
No, the game hasn't changed
Too much on the ground,
Though not much has remained
From last time around.
Never guessed they'd see ya—
(Never guessed they'd see ya—)
—Back here running free, yeah!
(—Back here running free, yeah!)
'Cause these geezers and sluts,
You just knocked 'em on their butts!
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back,
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back...
Welcome back!
You belong here; there's no doubt.
Welcome back
To the place from which the traitors threw you out.
So we know how hot our
Rage was burning then;
Was that fury what made
You return again?
Is that why voters freed ya—
(That's why voters freed ya—)
—To here where we need ya?
(—To here where we need ya.)
Yeah, you creamed the whole lot
Though they tried to have you shot;
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back,
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back...
[Instrumental]
Yeah, you know how we've been
Under those vermin;
That's why we voted for
Your return again.
Now that's why we all freed ya—
(That's why we all freed ya—)
—To here where we need ya.
(—To here where we need ya.)
So you creamed the whole lot
Though they tried to have you shot;
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back,
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back...
Yeah, you knocked on their butts—
Welcome back, welcome back!
—All of those geezers and sluts;
Welcome back, welcome back!
They tried to have you shot,
But then you creamed the whole lot!
Welcome back!
welcome back, welcome back, welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back!
You reamed that demented lout.
Welcome back!
Time to throw him and all his harlots out.
No, the game hasn't changed
Too much on the ground,
Though not much has remained
From last time around.
Never guessed they'd see ya—
(Never guessed they'd see ya—)
—Back here running free, yeah!
(—Back here running free, yeah!)
'Cause these geezers and sluts,
You just knocked 'em on their butts!
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back,
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back...
Welcome back!
You belong here; there's no doubt.
Welcome back
To the place from which the traitors threw you out.
So we know how hot our
Rage was burning then;
Was that fury what made
You return again?
Is that why voters freed ya—
(That's why voters freed ya—)
—To here where we need ya?
(—To here where we need ya.)
Yeah, you creamed the whole lot
Though they tried to have you shot;
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back,
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back...
[Instrumental]
Yeah, you know how we've been
Under those vermin;
That's why we voted for
Your return again.
Now that's why we all freed ya—
(That's why we all freed ya—)
—To here where we need ya.
(—To here where we need ya.)
So you creamed the whole lot
Though they tried to have you shot;
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back,
Welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back...
Yeah, you knocked on their butts—
Welcome back, welcome back!
—All of those geezers and sluts;
Welcome back, welcome back!
They tried to have you shot,
But then you creamed the whole lot!
Welcome back!
welcome back, welcome back, welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back!
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back!
Fun fact: I'd never even heard of the Welcome Back, Kotter TV show and this theme song for it until a couple of months ago, even though by all accounts the show and song were big hits in their time. Let's just hope we won't be replaying the cultural and economic malaise of those times in this decade.
