By: jimmy buffett<br>1980<br>This song is for billy clyde tuggel. I hope you make it to tahiti one day.<br>-- spoken:<br>Play ball!! (one, two, three, four)<br>Where's my per diem? (ladies and gentlemen, the carl reiner band)<br>Hey bobby, where's the keys to the rent-a-car? <br>Jimmy, jimmy, can I open the show in atlanta please? <br>Warning! don't ever start a band!<br><br>He worked hard all year, just wanted a few weeks alone<br>But his old lady's into modelin', she can't get away from a phone<br>Besides she bitches about the mosquitoes<br>She says, down there there is nothing to do<br>Her goddamn phone never stops ringin'<br>He'll try the service in a day maybe two<br><br>Well he's on his third drink before the wheels of the plane leave the ground<br>Makin' points with the stewardess high over long island sound<br>She's also spending some time on the island<br>Too much city madness gives her the blues<br>They make a date to go dancin' and dinin'<br>It seems neither has that much to lose<br><br>Chorus:<br>The weather is here I wish you were beautiful<br>My thoughts aren't too clear but don't run away<br>My girlfriend's a bore, my job is too dutiful<br>Hell nobody's perfect would you like to play? <br>I feel together today<br><br>Well now that's just the start of a well-deserved overdue binge<br>Meanwhile back in the city certain people are starting to cringe<br>His lawyers are calling his parents<br>His girlfriend doesn't know what to think<br>His partners are studying their options<br>He's just singin' and orderin' drinks<br><br>Chorus:<br>The weather is here I wish you were beautiful<br>The skies are too clear life's so easy today<br>The beer is too cold, the daiquiri's too fruitiful<br>No place like home when you're this far away<br>I don't care what they say (I don't care)<br><br>He's goin' back to new york pack it up and let everyone know<br>It was something that he should have done such a long time ago<br>Still time to start a new life in the palm trees<br>Ah, billy clyde wasn't insane<br>And if it doesn't work out there'll never be any doubt<br>That the pleasure was worth all the pain<br><br>Chorus:<br>The weather is here I wish you were beautiful<br>The skies are too clear life's so easy today<br>The beer is too cold, the daiquiri's too fruitiful<br>No place like home when you're this far away<br>Time for to play<br>I need time for to play<br>Time for to play<br>I need time for to play<br>I need time for to play<br>I need time for to play<br>I need time for to play<br>I need time for to play<br>I need time for to play<br><br>- notes:<br>Billy clyde tuggel was a character in the soap opera all my children.<br>(see album dedication)
