 

CHORUS
Whenever new arrivals come, they're welcome, they are.
We help new arrivals settle in.
If they feel strange and on the edge, we help them belong.
We make new arrivals welcome here.
We make new arrivals welcome here.
1
We never let them worry.
We make them feel at ease,
show them the ropes and help them to fit in.
New arrivals.
We never leave them wond'ring where what they need might be.
They're not all stressed: they smile; they laugh; they grin.
Whenever new arrivals come, they're welcome, they are.
We help new arrivals settle in.
If they feel strange and on the edge, we help them belong.
We make new arrivals welcome here.
We make new arrivals welcome here.
2
We don't let them get lonely,
don't leave them by themselves
while those of us with longer here have fun.
New arrivals.
And if they say, “Don't get this!” we never just ignore:
we show them work we did like it before.
Whenever new arrivals come, they're welcome, they are.
We help new arrivals settle in.
If they feel strange and on the edge, we help them belong.
We make new arrivals welcome here.
We make new arrivals welcome here.
3
To put this very simply,
we treat them as we'd want
them to treat us if we were the new ones.
New arrivals.
We help them fit in quickly so it's not long before
they don't feel new arrivals any more.
Whenever new arrivals come, they're welcome, they are.
We help new arrivals settle in.
If they feel strange and on the edge, we help them belong.
We make new arrivals welcome here.
We make new arrivals welcome here.
