Sunset Strip lyrics

"...bull heads, three red snapper, one pink snapper and your Pacific coastal trench hosemonster fish"

"Oh! At Sky Daniel's juke joint of joy reports, forty under the console giggle stick ling cod, 23 purple perches, four sledgehammerhead sharks, and what a surprise, 84 crabs, and no red snappers!"

"Hey, and that'll do for the triumphant return of the fish report with a beat!"

[Jim:] We think of it as Main Street, but to the rest of the country it's Sunset Strip. You're listening to KAOS in Los Angeles!

[Verse 1: Roger Waters]

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 out of 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

[Chorus: Waters]

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

[Post-Chorus: Background Vocals]

Ooh-ooh, Billy come home

[Verse 2: Waters]

Billy is searching for his native land

Flicking through the stations with the dial in his head

Picking up *Signal Voice*

And a male voice choir on the short wave band

Billy taps out Jim's number on the phone

He 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

[Chorus: Waters]

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

[Post-Chorus: Background Vocals & Waters]

Ooh-ooh, Billy come home

Come on home

[Chorus: Waters]

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

[Post-Chorus: Background Vocals & Waters, Only Waters]

Billy come home

Yeah, Billy come home

Come on home

[Instrumental Outro (with Spoken: Californian Weirdo)]

(I don't like fish)

(Green fish)

(I don't like fish)

[Spoken Outro: Jim & Californian Weirdo, Man, (Multiple Voices), Woman]

[Jim:] You are listening to KAOS here in Los Angeles

[Californian Weirdo:] I don't like fish

[Jim:] Yes, we've established that, uh, do you have a request?

("Shellfish, 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, favorite fish would be sole. That way you don't have to see the eyes. Sole has no eyes

[Jim:] Oh no! *Laughs* Thank you!

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 and my dog

I'd like to be home with my monkey-

[Jim:] I don't care, shut up! Play the record!
