U2 - Elvis Ate America lyrics

Elvis...the Memphis flash

Elvis...didn't smoke hash

Would've been a sissy without Johnny Cash

Elvis...didn't dodge the draft

Elvis...had his own aircraft

Elvis...having a laugh

On the Lisa Marie in a colour photograph

Elvis...under the hood

Elvis...with Cadillac blood

Elvis...darling bud

Flowered and returned to the Mississippi mud

Elvis...ain't gonna rot

Elvis...in a Memphis plot

Elvis...he didn't hear the shot

And Dr. King died just across the lot from...

Elvis...vanilla ice cream

Elvis...girls of fourteen

Elvis...the Memphis spleen

Shooting TVs reading Corinthian's 13

Elvis...with God on his knees

Elvis...owned three TVs

Here come the killer bees Head full of honey potato chips and cheese

Elvis...the bumper stickers

Elvis...the white knickers

Elvis...the white nigger

Ate at king burger and just kept getting bigger

Elvis...sang to win

Elvis...the battle hymn

Elvis...the battle to be slim

Elvis ate America before America ate him

Elvis...

Elvis...stamps

Elvis...necromance

Elvis...fans

Elvis...psychophants

Elvis...the public enemy

Elvis...don't mean shit to Chuck D.

Elvis...changed the center of gravity

Made it slippy

Elvis...Hitler

Elvis...Nixon

Elvis...Christ

Elvis...Mishima

Elvis...Markus

Elvis...Jackson

Elvis...the pelvis

Elvis...the psalmist

Elvis...the genius

Elvis...generous

Elvis...forgive us

Elvis...pray for us

Elvis...Aaron

Elvis...Presley

Elvis
