Come Home Billy Bird(2020 Remaster) - The Divine Comedy

作曲：Neil Hannon

William wakes with his clothes on

The morning call has been and gone

And he might not make the flight

But he will try yeah

Bit by bit it comes back to him

A bunch of Belgian businessmen

And a strange drinking game

Oh God why

Come home Billy Bird

International business traveler

Come home Billy Bird

He hails a cab but the driver sucks

He drives so slowly and he talks so much

That it hurts Billy Bird's aching brain yeah

He runs from the cab to the check in desk

She says no way but William begs

On his knees please please please

Well okay

Come home Billy Bird

International business traveler

Come home Billy Bird

Drenched in sweat he finds his seat

And with the luggage squeezed down beneath his feet

He begins to think that

Things can't get no worse

But then a voice says

Bags that can't be stowed

In the overhead lockers must go below

In the hold please let go thank you Sir

Come home Billy Bird

International business traveler

Come home Billy Bird

Come home William come home

He runs on past the carousel

Screaming damn my luggage all to hell

I can buy a new shirt and tie any day

He rides from the airport into town

To the high school football ground

Where his son has just begun his big football game

Come home Billy Bird

International business traveler

Come home Billy Bird

Come home Billy Bird

International business traveler

Come home William

Come home Billy Bird

International business traveler

Come home William

Come home Billy Bird

International business traveler

Come home Billy Bird

Come home Billy Bird
