Levon
Levon
Levon
wears his war-wound like a crown
He
calls his child Jesus
`Cause
he likes the name
And
he sends him to the finest school in town
Levon,
Levon likes his money
He
makes a lot they say
Spend
his days counting
In
a garage by the motorway
He
was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas day
When
the New York Times said "God is dead
And
the war's begun
Alvin
Tostig has a son today"
And
he shall be Levon
And
he shall be a good man
And
he shall be Levon
In
tradition with the family plan
And
he shall be Levon
And
he shall be a good man
He
shall be Levon
Levon
sells cartoon balloons in town
His
family business thrives
Jesus
blows up balloons all day
Sits
on the porch swing watching them fly
And
Jesus, he wants to go to Venus
Leaving
Levon far behind
Take
a balloon and go sailing
While
Levon, Levon slowly dies
