Question: Did Dexter Holland, an American musician and songwriter for punk rock band The Offspring or Roger Hodgson, an English musician write and sing "Take the Long Way Home"?
Context: The Offspring is an American rock band from Garden Grove, California, formed in 1984.  Originally formed under the name Manic Subsidal, the band has consisted of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Dexter Holland, bassist Greg K., lead guitarist Kevin "Noodles" Wasserman and drummer Pete Parada since 2007.  While Holland, Greg K., and Noodles have been constant members since the band was formed, the Offspring has gone through a number of drummers.  Their longest-serving drummer was Ron Welty, who had been a member of The Offspring for 16 years; he was replaced by Atom Willard in 2003, and then four years later by Parada.  The band is often credited—alongside fellow California punk bands Green Day, Bad Religion, NOFX, Pennywise and Rancid—for reviving mainstream interest in punk rock in the 1990s.  They have sold over 40 million records worldwide, being considered one of the best-selling punk rock bands of all time. Nitro Records is an American independent record label, created and operated by Dexter Holland (from 1994 to 2013) (lead singer and founder of The Offspring) and fellow Offspring bassist Greg K.  They started the label in 1994.  Nitro is famous for being an incubator for punk rock artists who have subsequently become successful, most notably AFI.  The label has also released albums from classic punk bands, including The Damned and T.S.O.L. Charles Roger Pomfret Hodgson (born 21 March 1950) is an English musician, singer and songwriter, best known as the former co-frontman and founder member of progressive rock band Supertramp.

Let's Take the Long Way Home: a memoir of friendship is a memoir by Gail Caldwell (1951–).  The memoir describes the friendship between the author and fellow writer Caroline Knapp who died at the age of 42 in 2002, and it takes place in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

"Come Out and Play" is a song by the Californian punk rock group The Offspring.  It is the seventh track on their third album "Smash" (1994) and was released as the first single from that album.  Written by frontman Dexter Holland, the song was the second single to be released by the band, after "I'll Be Waiting" (1986).  It is considered to be The Offspring's breakthrough song, as it received widespread radio play and reached number one on the "Billboard" Modern Rock Tracks chart, bringing both the band and the punk rock genre to widespread attention.  Inspiration for the "keep 'em separated" lyric came from Dexter Holland's experience in a laboratory cooling Erlenmeyer flasks full of hot liquids. "Days Go By" is a pop punk song by the American punk rock band The Offspring.  It is featured as the third track on the band's ninth studio album of the same name and was released as its first single.

It was the band's first album for Nitro, a label started and co-owned by Dexter Holland and Greg Kriesel of The Offspring.  It was also the first to be produced by Vandals guitarist Warren Fitzgerald, who would continue to produce most of their albums throughout their career, and the first to include Brooks Wackerman, who often substituted for regular drummer Josh Freese.  It was a breakthrough release for the band, who would release three more albums on Nitro before moving to their own label Kung Fu Records in 2002. The Offspring is an American punk rock band formed in Garden Grove, California in 1984.  The band originally comprised vocalist Doug Thompson, guitarist Dexter Holland, bassist Greg K. and drummer Jim Benton, although Thompson and Benton left early on.

After performing on the band's debut single "I'll Be Waiting" and co-writing the song "Beheaded", Lilja left the band in 1987 to be replaced by Ron Welty.  In 1994, Chris "X-13" Higgins joined as a touring guitarist, keyboardist and percussionist.
