Kid Charlemagne by Steely Dan


While the music played you worked by candlelight

Those San Francisco nights you were the best in town

Just by chance you crossed the diamond with the pearl

You turned it on the world that's when you turned the world around

 

Did you feel like Jesus? Did you realize

That you were a champion in their eyes?

 

On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene but yours was kitchen clean

Everyone stopped to stare at your technicolor motor home

Every A-frame had your number on the wall

You must have had it all you'd go to L.A. on a dare and you'd go it alone

 

Could you live forever could you see the day

Could you feel your whole world fall apart and fade away

Get along get along kid Charlemagne

Get along kid Charlemagne

 

Now your patrons have all left you in the red

Your low rent friends are dead this life can be very strange

All those dayglow freaks who used to paint the face

They've joined the human race some things will never change

 

Son you were mistaken you are obsolete

Look at all the white men on the street

 

Get along get along kid Charlemagne

Get along kid Charlemagne

 

Clean this mess up else we'll all end up in jail

Those test tubes and the scale just get them all out of here

Is there gas in the car? Yes there's gas in the car

I think the people down the hall know who you are

 

Careful what you carry 'cause the man is wise

You are still an outlaw in their eyes

 

Get along get along kid Charlemagne

Get along kid Charlemagne
