There’s No Place Like Gnome lyrics

[GNOME]

Greeting from the Great Wall of China!

[RAPHAEL]

Here's another from the U.S

[GNOME]

Sending lots of luck from Las Vegas!

[RAPHAEL]

Every week a new address

[GNOME]

Cheerio from Buckingham Palace!

[RAPHAEL]

I admit he looks good as a guard

But I want him back in my backyard

[GNOME]

Rio De Janeiro's Brazilliant

[RAPHAEL]

Do you see that crack in his clay?

[GNOME]

Here today gone to Maui

[RAPHAEL]

His black paint's fading to gray

[GNOME]

Traveling the world is tremendous

[RAPHAEL]

But for a garden gnome, its gotta be hard

But I just want him back in my backyard

[GNOME]

Put on my pointy shoes

And board another plane

Race down to Monaco

Chase down a bull in Spain

The stewardesses they always wonder

Doesn't matter where I roam

She asks "Are you one of Santa's elves?"

And I say "Ma'am I am a Gnome!"

[RAPHAEL]

I just want him back in my backyard

I just want him back in my backyard

I just want him back where he belongs

Back when nothing moves

Back before these feelings made me feel things

[AMÉLIE]

Dad, it's really good to see you

Here's a glass of water; take a sip

I know that change isn't easy

I'm glad that you made the trip

Why don't you look at the menu?

Meet a few of my friends while you can

You like the white wine and mussels

Dad, this is Suzanne
