Billy, according to an interview I saw with James, is a friend of his who "owes me money" so he wrote a song about him. Also Billy is the moderator on James' message board.
The other folks above already explained the Prodigal Son ;-)

The Prodigal Son is a parable common to Christianity and Buddhism. It illustrates a father's unconditional love for his son.

See Luke 15:11-32.
(It's, in short, the story of a son who squanders his inheritance on loose living and ends up ruined but then goes back to his father who welcomes him lovingly despite his actions.)
