There’s No Place Like Gnome [UK Version] lyrics
GNOME:
Greetings from The Great Wall of China
RAPHAEL:
Here's another from the U.S
GNOME:
Sending lots of love from Las Vegas
RAPHAEL:
Every week, a new address
GNOME:
Cheerio from Buckingham Palace
RAPHAEL:
I admit, he looks good as a guard
I want him back in my backyard
GNOME:
Rio De Janerio's Brazilliant
RAPHAEL:
Do you see that crack in his clay?
GNOME:
Here today gone to Maui
RAPHAEL:
His black paint is fading to grey
GNOME:
Travelling the world is tremendous
RAPHAEL:
For a garden gnome it's got to be hard
But I 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
Ha!
The stewardesses always wonder
Doesn't matter where I roam
She asks, "Are you one of Santa's elves?"
I say, "Mam, I am a gnome!"
RAPHAEL & CHORUS:
I just want him back
RAPHAEL (GNOME, spoken):
In my back yard (Thank you!)
RAPHAEL & CHORUS:
I just want him back
RAPHAEL:
In my back yard
I just want him back where he belongs
Back where nothing moves
Back before these feelings make me feel
Things
AMÉLIE:
Papa, it's really good to see you
Here's a glass of Conyac
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'd love the white wine and mussles
Papa, this is Suzanne
(Spoken)
She worked in the circus
RAPHAEL (spoken):
Oh...
