[00:11.26] While the music played you worked by candlelight
[00:15.11] Those san francisco nights
[00:17.67] You were the best in town
[00:21.23] Just by chance you crossed the diamond with the pearl
[00:25.41] You turned it on the world
[00:27.78] Thats when you turned the world around
[00:31.34] Did you feel like jesus
[00:34.58] Did you realize
[00:37.14] That you were a champion in their eyes
[00:46.19] On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene
[00:50.24] But yours was kitchen clean
[00:52.43] Everyone stopped to stare at your technicolor motor home
[00:56.23] Every a-frame had your number on the wall
[01:00.35] You must have had it all
[01:02.85] Youd go to l.a. on a dare
[01:05.11] And youd go it alone
[01:06.53] Could you live forever
[01:09.65] Could you see the day
[01:12.21] Could you feel your whole world fall apart and fade away
[01:16.39] Get along, get along kid charlemagne
[01:21.32] Get along kid charlemagne
[01:24.00]
[01:31.32] Now your patrons have all left you in the red
[01:35.32] Your low rent friends are dead
[01:37.50] This life can be very strange
[01:41.55] All those dayglow freaks who used to paint the face
[01:45.24] Theyve joined the human race
[01:47.55] Some things will never change
[01:51.35] Son you were mistaken
[01:54.91] You are obsolete
[01:57.41] Look at all the white men on the street
[02:01.40]
[03:08.56] Clean this mess up else well all end up in jail
[03:12.43] Those test tubes and the scale
[03:14.55] Just get them all out of here
[03:18.61] Is there gas in the car
[03:20.98] Yes, theres gas in the car
[03:24.47] I think the people down the hall
[03:26.78] Know who you are
[03:28.22] Careful what you carry
[03:31.21] cause the man is wise
[03:33.89] You are still an outlaw in their eyes
