[00:19.06]Spent last winter playing in the sand
[00:22.87]With the prisoners of the motherland
[00:27.06]Damn hotel is feeling like a cell
[00:35.50]And even paradise can be so cruel
[00:39.87]Sitting by the swimming pool
[00:44.19]Trying to keep my head together
[00:48.47]In that hot Australia weather
[00:53.28]Three days to kill and my per diem's getting low
[01:01.10]Cause I spent all my money calling long distance
[01:10.04]Calling long distance, such a long way from home
[01:19.10]Am I talking to long distance, can you put me through?
[01:26.28]Twelve thousand miles but I've got not resistance,
[01:30.78]Long distance, long distance, long distance, long distance
[01:35.66]Now the Road Hog's face is turning red
[01:39.66]Larry's still asleep in bed
[01:43.53]Romeo he can't get no head at all
[01:52.22]And the Doctor looks on so annoyed
[01:56.66]You disappoint me, Mr. Boyd
[02:00.54]And the Electric Dwarf wishes he was six foot tall
[02:08.47]Now Romeo's patience is wearing thin
[02:13.10]C'mon baby, let me in
[02:17.35]It's five a.m. and I've been creeping 'round the hall
[02:25.91]Got no resistance calling long distance
[02:30.48]You sound so close but your such a long way from home
[02:43.48]Am I talking to long distance, can you put me through?
[02:51.60]Twelve thousand miles but I've got not resistance,
[02:55.29]Long distance, long distance, long distance, long distance
[03:07.38]
[03:18.35]Still no points for my merrymen,
[03:20.78]Except Ricard, he just scored ten
[03:24.78]Now Road Hog's getting drunk again
[03:28.97]And I only get to hold my pen
[03:33.60]Instead of what I love to hold the most.
[03:41.28]I feel so lonesome I could cry
[03:45.66]Count the hours as they roll by
[03:50.16]It's day time now
[03:53.41]I think I'll make a call
[04:00.16]Hello long distance, calling long distance
[04:03.22]You sound so close but you're such a long way from home
[04:15.91]You're such a long way from home
