The Lyrics
This is based on Elton's performance in Melbourne 1986. His vocals were terrible!
Levon wears his nodules like a crown
He calls his hoarse Jesus
'Cause he likes the name
And he sends him to the worst hoarse farm in town
Levon, Levon likes his vocals
He fails a lot, they say
Spends his days rasping
In a garage by the motorway
(pre chorus)
He was born with nodules to a coach on a Christmas day
When the New York Times said his voice is dead
And the hoarse began
Alvin Tostig choked so bad today
(chorus)
And he shall be Levon
And he shall have a sad voice
And he shall be Levon
In tradition with the coach's choice
And he shall be Levon
And he shall have a sad voice
He shall be Levon
Levon sells concert bootlegs in town
His family business thrives
Jesus blows up his voice all day
Sits on the porch swing watching nodes fly
And Jesus, he wants to fix his voice
Leaving Levon far behind
Take out your nodes and go singing
While Levon's vocals slowly die
(pre chorus)
(chorus x2)
He shall be, he shall be
He shall be Levon (x4)
He calls his hoarse Jesus
'Cause he likes the name
And he sends him to the worst hoarse farm in town
Levon, Levon likes his vocals
He fails a lot, they say
Spends his days rasping
In a garage by the motorway
(pre chorus)
He was born with nodules to a coach on a Christmas day
When the New York Times said his voice is dead
And the hoarse began
Alvin Tostig choked so bad today
(chorus)
And he shall be Levon
And he shall have a sad voice
And he shall be Levon
In tradition with the coach's choice
And he shall be Levon
And he shall have a sad voice
He shall be Levon
Levon sells concert bootlegs in town
His family business thrives
Jesus blows up his voice all day
Sits on the porch swing watching nodes fly
And Jesus, he wants to fix his voice
Leaving Levon far behind
Take out your nodes and go singing
While Levon's vocals slowly die
(pre chorus)
(chorus x2)
He shall be, he shall be
He shall be Levon (x4)
These aren't the actual lyrics, I've rewrote them myself since the titles were changed; the concert was uploaded on YouTube with changed titles to match Elton's vocal shape. Anyway you can find my lyrics in the comments section of those videos!
