Clean this mess up else we'll all end up in jail
Could you feel your whole world fall apart and fade away
They've joined the human race some things will never change
Just by chance you crossed the diamond with the pearl
Look at all the white men on the street
You turned it on the world that's when you turned the world around
You must have had it all you'd go to L.A. on a dare and you'd go it alone
All those dayglow freaks who used to paint the face
You are still an outlaw in their eyes
Did you feel like Jesus? Did you realize
Your low rent friends are dead this life can be very strange
Get along kid Charlemagne
Every A-frame had your number on the wall
Son you were mistaken you are obsolete
That you were a champion in their eyes?
Is there gas in the car? Yes, there's gas in the car
Could you live forever could you see the day
Get along kid Charlemagne
On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene but yours was kitchen clean
Get along get along kid Charlemagne
I think the people down the hall know who you are
Everyone stopped to stare at your technicolor motor home
Those test tubes and the scale just get them all out of here
Careful what you carry 'cause the man is wise
Get along get along kid Charlemagne
Get along get along kid Charlemagne
Now your patrons have all left you in the red
