Billy
Billy was a landmine to his friends
But he would never get excited till the end
You can see him in the corner there all alone
And if you see him on the street he says hes on his way home
But he dont go home
Hes got his books to read, hes got his life to lead at night
Weve been sittin round the tables and too long
And weve been making out that there was nothing wrong
And time is nothing when theres nothing left to say
And time goes slow on Billys silent holiday
But he dont go home
Hes got it all sewn up; hes got his life to lead at night
Hes forever on crossbones cycle at home so his mama dont know
Billys been bending some their rules at the Saturday Show
Come on Billy!
Billy was a landmine to his friends
But he would never get excited till the end
He built a city in his head and went to live up there too
Man who knows made him an inmate in an urban zoo
But he dont go home
They got him all sewn up; they got his life to lead at night
Oh hes forever on crossbones cycle at home so his mama dont know
Billys been bending some their rules at the Saturday Show
Come on Billy! Buh-buh-buh Billy! Billy! Billy! Billy! Billy! Billy!
Dont ever change
Not even for a little while
Dont ever change
I love you just the way you are
I dont understand, Ive never done a thing to you
Dont ever change
Dont ever start to ask me to
Dont ask me to, wont ask you to
Dont ever change
Not even for a little while
Dont ever change
I love you just the way you are
I dont understand, Ive never done a thing to you
Dont ever change
Dont ever start to ask me to
Dont ask me to, wont ask you to
Hah!
