: Elton John
: Levon
: Music by - Elton John
: Lyrics by - Bernie Taupin
: From - Madman Across the Water
: Peaked at #24 - 2/72
: 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
: 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
