claude

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.

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

that mornin' i'm in the classroom

it's our first day back and the school buses are on strike!

so, i'm covering for annette who's running late.

annette

sorry, beulah! how's the kids?

beulah

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!

ganderian 1

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

female company

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

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**k down!

ganderian 2

welcome to the land where the winters tried to kill us

and we said:

company

we will not be killed!

ganderian 3

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!

ganderian 4

welcome to the land where the wind tried to blow!

company

and we said no!

bonnie

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

i'm in the library

beulah

i'm in the staff room

bonnie, annette, & beulah

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 {company}

i'm running my radar {i'm an islander}

when bonnie comes by {i am an islander}

she pulls up {i'm an islander}

and she is waving at me like mad {i am an islander}

so, i roll down my window {i'm an islander}

and she says:

bonnie {company}

oz, turn on the radio! {i am an islander}

oz {company}

slow it down, bonnie - {i'm an islander}

bonnie

jesus h, oz! turn on your radio.

company

where our story starts

janice

it's my first day at the station

company

where we'll end the night

bus driver

i'm gettin' coffee for the picket line.

company

where we know by heart

ganderian 5

five minutes 'til my smoke break

company

every single flight

ganderian 6

i'm off to work at the airport

male company

welcome to the fog

welcome to the trees

to the ocean and the sky

and whatever's in between

to the one's who've left

you're never truly gone

a candle's in the window

and a kettle's always on

company

when the sun is coming up

and the world has come ashore

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 one's who have come from away

welcome to the rock!
