[Verse 1]
Everyone's talking 'bout Elvis
'Cause it seems like the thing that we do
Elvis is walking around listlessly
Seems he can't even die if he wanted to
It's a bad business to be in
You don't get thanked and you don't get paid
It's a hard world to be in with
And to end with, and to think about leaving behind
[Verse 2]
Exhuming the body in Memphis
Waiting five hours to get into Graceland
Is this anybody's idea of a good time
Or a good joke?
Airport biographies are usually true
Fame and fortune took its toll
He's not the king of rock and roll anymore
He's just a junkie redneck
[Bridge]
Pull a sheet over your head
Fold your arms across your chest
Lie back in bed
You can call folks constantly tomorrow, oh-woah
