Better Than Ezra - King Of New Orleans

There's an angel on the stairs
(as if you's even care)
When the lights go up
and the sun has nearly gone down
Did you see him on the street?
Did you pass him at your feet?
Did you think aloud, 'how dare they even look me in the eye'?
And he loves the girls
And he loves the boys
Going to make twenty dollars
before the weekends over.
So set him up
Let him fall.
Turn him over in your hands.
God save the King of New Orleans
Got a ticket to a show
Going to see him take a blow
When the drunk one said,
"Cat Sssstevens was the greatest singer!"
And did you kick him in the head?
Did you see the blood run down?
Did you laugh at all when the people
walked right by and said aloud
"You giutter punks area ll the same
Probably make twenty dollars 'fore the weekends over."
Then it kicks your head in.
Just give him one more chance
try to see the beauty in his world
All the way in on my hands, in on my feet,
and shoulders. Going to make twenty dollars
before the weekends over
So set him up
Then let him fall
Turn him over in your hands
God save the King of New Orleans
