Went chasing yourself
Around the world
A cocky young spaniel
Chasing every ball
To find the perfect pearl
You're a traveling island
This pirate's getting dizzy
Drawing circles in the sand
But ex marks the spot boy
And you're starting to look
Like a faded treasure map
Keep it small baby
Keep it small from the start
Keep it small baby
Down there playing its part
So you're home, coming home, so you're home
You'II never, ever, ever be home
So you're home, home alone
You'II never, ever, ever be
Young sparrow learnt a new tongue down south
Took the roundest of trips
To find a crooked little soul
Once buried in his mouth
The younger the better
Said a fat, wise man in Thailand
As he got his daily rub
Then he rocks himself to sleep each night
With his ego, his partner, his one true love
Keep her small baby
Keep her small from the start
And if she grows baby
Cut her down at the heart
So you're home, coming home, so you're home
You'll never, ever, ever be home
So you're home, home alone
You'll never be, never be home
So you're home, home alone
You'Il never, ever, ever be home
So you're home, home alone
You'll never be, never be home
Well the thing about leaving boy is
You have to come back
And the thing about coming back
Is that time it doesn't trickle in a circle in the sand
So you picked yourself a flower
So new and pink and pretty, this perky little bud
Well I guess it's love
Love, love, love
So you're home, coming home, so you're home
You'II never, ever, ever be home
So you're home, home alone
You'II never be, never be home
So you're home, coming home
You'II never, ever, ever be home
So you're home, home alone
You'II never be, never be home
Well the camel's back, did it bring you back?
And the downward dog, did it bring you the bone?
Did you find it in the mountains boy?
Did you find it in the deepest sea?
Walking around all barefoot, barefoot through a forest
Or milking cows on your knees?
Did the voice in the call centre
Tell you the secret to your pain?
Well the poker chips, you know they're falling again
