Home again and the streets are not much cleaner
And the quaint old south side scenery
Is quaint no more
Just older than before
Go up the stairs and down the hallway
To my daddy's door
Your son is home, Dad, and he's found a girl
And she's the greatest girl in all the world
I think you'll like her, Dad, I hope you do
But if you don't that's alright, too
What's new? Do you still work at the drugstore?
Is that true? Still polishing the same floor?
I missed my good old Dad
My but I'm glad to see you
Come and see us, Poppa, when you can
There'll always be a place for my old man
Just drop by when it's convenient to
Be sure and call before you do
So long Dad

Randy Newman (Randall Stuart Newman) è un cantautore, pianista, compositore e arrangiatore statunitense nato a Los Angeles nel 1943. Noto per il suo umorismo tagliente e la sua capacità di satireggiare temi sociali e politici, Newman ha costruito una carriera longeva e apprezzata. Le sue canzoni, spesso caratterizzate da arrangiamenti orchestrali complessi e testi ironici, hanno esplorato argomenti come la guerra, la razza, la religione e l'american dream. Tra i suoi brani più celebri figurano "Short People", "Louisiana 1927" e "You've Got a Friend in Me". Newman ha anche composto colonne sonore per film di successo come "Ragtime", "Toy Story" e "The Natural", dimostrando la sua versatilità artistica. La sua musica, spesso controversa ma sempre profondamente umana, lo ha consacrato come uno dei cantautori più influenti degli ultimi decenni.
