Don't leave me this waaaaaay-ay-ay-ay

quotes from a BBCNews article:

Pop singer Michael Jackson is unlikely to ever want to live in the US again, his father has told an interviewer.

Joseph Jackson said his son, who has been based in Bahrain since being cleared of child abuse charges in June, will return only for work and visits.

Awww, that's sad. But why?

"He'll come back to visit, but not to stay, not to live" Mr Jackson told the Associated Press.

"They didn't treat him right here. I know if I was him, I wouldn't come back."
