Welcome Home is a song sung in the 2001 film Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure and is performed by the chorus, Jeff Bennett, Jodi Benson, Kath Soucie, Jim Cummings, Michael Gough, and Debi Derryberry. All except Scamp. This song is the opening song for the film. It sets up the theme for the entire film - independence. The sequence ends with a Broadway-style performance of various people out in a street singing and waving. It is later reprised at the end of the film while Angel has been adopted and while Scamp is being bathed. After Scamp was bathed everyone from Aladdin And The King Of Thieves sang There's a Party Here in Agrabah.

Chorus:
To this small, little
Not too big, little homey
Nice, little, quaint, little always kindly
Old New England town welcome
If you're new to the place
And feeling uneasy
Fret not a bit
In this always, friendly
Old New England town
Welcome (2x)
To our family picnic
July fourth picnic
Independence Day!
Darling: (spoken) Aunt Sarah! Will we see you at the picnic the day after tomorrow?
Aunt Sarah: (spoken) Of course! My precious kitties love the Fourth of July.
Workers: (singing)
Men whether next of kin or new-door neighbor
Happily, we pool our labor to give our town a new face
Joe: (spoken) A nifty new look!
Tony: (spoken) A red, white and-a blue look!
Workers: (singing)
And when we're done, you'll never know the place
Chorus:
At our family picnic
July fourth picnic Independence Day
There's a buzzing in the air
Children running everywhere
As all of us prepare
For that once-a-year wonderful day
And our spirits are so high
Feels like Christmas in July
As we pray the hours fly
To that star-spangled
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful day
Female Puppies:
We can hardly wait to bathe and dress up
We love picnics we confess, yup!
Lady:
With Darling and with Jim Dear
We've made a home from which we'll never roam
Tramp:
Why would we
when we're so contented here
Lady:
In this small, little, not too
Female Puppies:
Big, little, cozy
Warm, little, swell, little
Chorus:
Always loving old New England home?
In our small, little, not too big
Little, honey, nice, little
Quaint, little Always friendly One town
Welcome (4x)
Genie:
There's a party here in Agrabah,
There's excitement in the air
People pourin' in from near and far
'Cause Jasmine and Aladdin are gonna have a weddin'!
There's a party here in Agrabah,
Everybody will be there
So if you're a pauper or a shah,
Do somethin' with your hair!
You mustn't wear an outfit that's naughty
A turban that's unraveling just won't do
No earrings that are tasteless or gaudy
You're gonna look gorgeous when I get through
There's a party here in Agrabah
So I'm goin' to paint the town
If you want to see what colors are,
Follow me around!
Aladdin's gettin' married, and it's gonna be
The wedding of the century
My buddy's gettin' married, and you're gonna see
Just how much I can do!
You've heard of your safari, bar mitzvahs, (Aah!)
You've all been to a luau, or a sweet sixteen (Huh!)
Well, none of them compare to what this is!
The food'll be disgusting, by evening you'll be busting!
Harem Girls:
There's a party here in Agrabah,
And it's got us all aglow
Genie (as Sylvester Stallone):
If a street rat could've come so far,
Maybe I could do it
Sure, there's nothin' to it!
Snobby Woman:
There's a party here in Agrabah,
But we're not sure that we'll go
For although the bride is lah-tee-dah,
The groom is awfully low
Genie (as both himself wearing a Jafar mask and Walter Cronkite):
And now we take you down to the palace
Where everyone has celebrated all night long
Without Jafar and all of his malice,
Everybody's happy!
What could possibly go wrong?
Thieves:
There's a party here in Agrabah
And we're gonna rob 'em blind!
Cassim:
While they're all munching caviar
Create a small disturbance, I'll sneak up from behind
Iago:
There's a party here in Agrabah
And the loot is pourin' in!
I like this wedding stuff so far!
Maybe if I'm pleasant,
I'll get to keep a present!
Genie:
We've ordered just a few tasteful flowers
And valets who'll carefully park for you
The bridesmaids have been dressing for hours!
Girls, you look just lovely, and so grown-up too
There's a party here in Agrabah
Guests are filling up the room
But there's something missing...
Yes, aha!
Sultan:
Where is the groom?
Aladdin:
There's a party here in Agrabah
And the party's all for me
Just look, you guys, at where we are,
And how our dreams have come to be!
Jasmine:
There's a party here in Agrabah
And I can't believe it's true
After all this waiting, here we are
We'll finally get so say, "I do!"
Aladdin: I never, ever had a real family
Jasmine: I never, ever had a real true friend
Both: Someone who could just understand me...
Iago:
Hey, c'mon, Aladdin, this mush has gotta end!
Genie:
There's a party here in Agrabah
And it's starting right away
Let's get you dressed, 'cause you're the star!
Hey, c'mon, it's your wedding day!
Crowd:
Aladdin's gettin' married, and it's gonna be
The wedding of the century
Amazing how Aladdin could've come so far...
Genie: They're finally gettin' married!
Sultan: They're finally gettin' married!
Thieves: They're finally gettin' married!
Iago: Look at all these presents!
Jasmine: We're finally getting married!
Abu: (squeaks) You're finally gettin' married!
Aladdin: I'm finally gettin' married!
Crowd:
They're finally gettin' married
At the party in Agraba-a-a-ah!!
(background (mumbling))
Such a sight to see
Come on, go with me
There's a party in Agrabah!
