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
 Spends 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"
 Oh, 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
 Leave Levon far behind
 Take a balloon and go sailing
 While Levon, Levon slowly dies
 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"
 And 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 (whoo!)
 And he shall be Levon
 And he shall be a good man
 He shall be Levon
 And he shall be Levon
 And he shall be a good man
 And he shall be Levon
 In tradition with the family plan (whoo!)
 And he shall be Levon
 And he shall be a good man
 He shall be Levon
