Roger Waters
Sunset Strip (2023 Single Mix)
[Spoken Intro: Jim]
*Billy plays with Great Uncle David's Great Dane*
[Jim:] We think of it as Main Street, but to the rest of the country it's Sunset Strip. You're listening to K.A.O.S 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: Roger 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: Backup singers]
Ooh-ooh, Billy come home

[Verse 2: Roger 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: Roger 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: Roger Waters, Backup singers]
Ooh-ooh, Billy come home
Come on home

[Chorus: Roger 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: Roger Waters, Backup singers]
Billy come home
Yeah, Billy come home
Come on home
