Ian Ritchie - Sunset Strip lyrics

The canyon - daytime Billy plays with Great Uncle David's Great Dane [Paraquat Kelly] Bull heads, three red snapper, one pink snapper and your Pacific coastal trench hosemonster fish [Cynthia Fox] Oh! At Sky David'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! [Paraquat Kelly] Hey, and that'll do for the triumphant return of the fish report with a beat! [Jim] We think of it as mainstreet, but to the rest of the country it's Sunset Strip. You're listening to K.A.O.S. in Los Angeles! 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 Billy come home Billy is searching for his native land Flicking through the stations with the dial in his head Picking up 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 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, uh, do you have a request? [Multiple voices] Shell fish, Guppy, Salmon, Shrimp and crab and lobster, Flounder [Man] 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! [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 and my dog I'd like to be home with my monkey- [Jim] I don't care, shut up! Play the record!
