Verse 1

 Did you think that your feet had been bound

 By what gravity brings to the ground?

 Did you feel you were tricked

 By the future you picked?

 Well, come on down

 All those rules don’t apply

 When you’re high in the sky

 So, come on down

 Come on down

Chorus

 We’re coming down to the ground

 There’s no better place to go

 We’ve got snow up on the mountains

 We’ve got rivers down below

 We’re coming down to the ground

 We hear the birds sing in the trees

 And the land will be looked after

 We send the seeds out in the breeze

Verse 2

x2

 Did you think you’d escaped from routine

 By changing the script and the scene?

Despite all you made of it

 You’re always afraid

 Of the change

 You’ve got a lot on your chest

 Well, you can come as my guest

 So come on down

 Come on down

Chorus

 We’re coming down to the ground

 There’s no better place to go

 We’ve got snow up on the mountains

 We’ve got rivers down below

 We’re coming down to the ground

 We hear the birds sing in the trees

 And the land will be looked after

 We send the seeds out in the breeze

Bridge

 Like the fish in the ocean

 We felt at home in the sea

 We learned to live off the good land

 Learned to climb up a tree

 Then we got up on two legs

 But we wanted to fly

 When we messed up our homeland

 We set sail for the sky

Chorus

 We’re coming down to the ground

 There’s no better place to go

 We’ve got snow up on the mountains

 We’ve got rivers down below

 We’re coming down to the ground

 We hear the birds sing in the trees

 And the land will be looked after

 We send the seeds out in the breeze

 We’re coming down

 Coming down to Earth

 Like babies at birth

 Coming down to Earth

 We’re gonna find new priorities

 These are extraordinary qualities

Down to Earth

 We’re coming down to the ground

 There’s no better place to go

 We’ve got snow up on the mountains

 We’ve got rivers down below

 We’re coming down to the ground

 We hear the birds sing in the trees

 And the land will be looked after

 We send the seeds out in the breeze

 We’re coming down to the ground

 There’s no better place to go

 We’ve got snow up on the mountains

 We’ve got rivers down below

 We’re coming down to the ground

 We hear the birds sing in the trees

 And the land will be looked after

 We send the seeds out in the breeze

 We’re coming down

 Coming down to Earth

 Like babies at birth

 Coming down to Earth

 We’re gonna find new priorities

 These are extraordinary qualities
