Oscar was an angel and he used to walk the streetsShoutin' out some prophesies at everyone he'd meetHe was a local fixture; like a cop out on a beatFolks said he'd been shell-shocked long agoAnd more than that for no one seemed to knowOscar was a walker; at least four miles twice a dayThe entire lenght of Main Street he'd be shoutin' all the wayAnd I had no idea where he heard the things he'd sayBut he was not your normal voice of doom;It was a happy song, sung slightly out of tuneAnd he'd say, "Everyone will die and go to heavenAnd we will all be angels somedayAnd 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 doorAnd Oscar, he'd come by most everyday by half past fourAnd he'd pay to see some movieThat he'd seen ten times beforeBut mostly we'd just let him in for freeThen he'd watch five minutes,Then he'd come and talk to meAnd he'd say, "Everyone will die and go to heavenAnd we will all be angels somedayAnd 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, it's going on ten years nowSince I left my hometownAnd I went back last summerFor a week I hung aroundI looked out for Oscar, he was no where to be foundAnd someone said they finally had to commit himAnd he died before they had time to forget himNow, I'm not about to argue,Oscar's train had jumped the trackBut I'll bet my last dollar on the plain and simple factOscar never said a word about me behind my backAnd the way that I was raised to understandWell, that alone, it makes him the better manAnd he'd say, "Everyone will die and go to heavenAnd we will all be angels somedayAnd 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"Yeah, we will all be angels someday...
