Song Lyrics

I like staying with my Uncle Dave
And I like playing with his great dane
But I don`t fit
I feel alien and strange
Kinda outa range
I like riding in my Uncle`s car
Down to the beach where the pretty girls all parade
And movie stars and paparazzi play
The Charles Atlas kicking sand in the face game
And I sit in the canyon with my back to the sea
There`s a blood red dragon on a field of green
Calling me back
Back to the Black Hills again
Ooh, ooh
Billy come home
Billy is searching for his native land
Flicking through the stations with the dial in his head
Picking up (background: static)
And a male voice choir on the short wave band
Billy taps out Jim`s number on the phone
Sits shaking as he waits for Jim`s answering tone
Come on my friend
Speak to me please
The land of my fathers is calling to me
And I sit in the canyon with my back to the sea
There`s a blood red dragon on a field of green
Calling me back
Back to the Black Hills again
Ooh, ooh
Billy come home
Come on home
He sits in the canyon with his back to the sea
Sees a blood red dragon on a field of green
He hears a male voice choir singing
Billy come home
Billy, Billy, come home
Come on home
[Californian Weirdo:] "I don`t like fish."
[Jim:] "You are listening to KAOS here in Los Angeles."
[Californian Weirdo:] "I don`t like fish."
[Jim:] "Yes, we`ve established that.
Ah! Do you have a request?"
[Californian Weirdo:] "Shell fish
Guppy
Salmon
Shrimp
And crab
And lobster
Flounder
I hate fish
But I think most of all
I hate fresh fish
Like trout
I hate fresh trout
My least-hated, favourite fish would be sole
That way you don`t have to see the eyes
Sole has no eyes."
[Jim:] "Oh no!"
[Woman:] "I`d like to be home with my monkey and my dog."
[Jim:] "Thankyou."
[Woman:] "I`d like to be home with my monkey and my dog
I`d like to be home with my monkey and my dog
I`d like to be home with my monkey and my dog
I`d like to be home with my monkey..."
[Jim:] "I don`t care
Shut up
Play the record."
