歌詞

Oscar was an angel and he used to walk the streets Shoutin' out some prophesies at everyone he'd meet He was a local fixture; like a cop out on a beat Folks said he'd been shell-shocked long ago And more than that for no one seemed to know Oscar was a walker; at least four miles twice a day The entire lenght of Main Street he'd be shoutin' all the way And I had no idea where he heard the things he'd say But he was not your normal voice of doom; It was a happy song sung slightly out of tune And he'd say, "Everyone will die and go to heaven and we will all be angels Someday and what you are in this world don't count for nothin' 'cause we are Only children, we're just lost along the way, but we will all be angels someday" Well, I worked at the Rialto; I sold tickets at the door And Oscar, he'd come by most everyday by half past four And he'd pay to see some movie that he'd seen ten times before But mostly we'd just let him in for free Then he'd watch five minutes, then he'd come and talk to me And he'd say, "Everyone will die and go to heaven and we will all be angels Someday and what you are in this world don't count for nothin'. For we are only Children, we're just lost along the way, but we will all be angels someday" Well, it's going on ten years now Since I left my hometown And I went back last summer For a week I hung around I looked out for Oscar, he was no where to be found And someone said they finally had to commit him And he died before they had time to forget him Now, I'm not about to argue, Oscar's train had jumped the track But I'll bet my last dollar on the plain and simple fact Oscar never said a word about me behind my back And the way that I was raised to understand Well, that bone, it makes him the better man And he'd say, "Everyone will die and go to heaven and we will all be angels Someday and what you are in this world don't count for nothin'. For we are only Children, we're just lost along the way, but we will all be angels someday" Yeah, we will all be angels someday
