To answer this, first we need to know more about Levon.

According to the Lyrics he wears his war wound like a crown... what war? He was born on the day an article published on April 8, 1966 in Time magazine entitled, "Is God Dead?". This is about the time the the war in Vietnam started, so he would have been too young to be part of that war.

Levon counts his money "in a garage by the motor way"... why not a bank or Stock Market? What does a garage have to do with cartoon balloons?

Cartoon balloons are funny... so he sells funny balloons and counts his money in a garage while living like he is a king in a war. Sounds like the description of a drug king pin who happens to package his dope in balloons.

Levon Lyrics

Elton JohnLevon wears his war wound like a crown

He calls his child Jesus

`Cause he likes the name

And he sends him to the finest school in town

Levon, Levon likes his money

He makes a lot they say

Spends his days counting

In a garage by the motorway

He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas Day

When the New York Times said God is dead

And the war's begun

Alvin Tostig has a son today

And he shall be Levon

And he shall be a good man

And he shall be Levon

In tradition with the family plan

And he shall be Levon

And he shall be a good man

He shall be Levon

Levon sells cartoon balloons in town

His family business thrives

Jesus blows up balloons all day

Sits on the porch swing watching them fly

And Jesus, he wants to go to Venus

Leaving Levon far behind

Take a balloon and go sailing

While Levon, Levon slowly dies

He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas day

When the New York Times said God is dead

And the war's begun

Alvin Tostig has a son today

And he shall be Levon

And he shall be a good man

And he shall be Levon

In tradition with the family plan

And he shall be Levon

And he shall be a good man

He shall be Levon

And he shall be a good man

And he shall be a Levon

In tradition of the family plan

And he shall be a Levon

And he shall be a good man

He shall be Levon

And he shall be Levon
