Bono Elvis Ate America Lyrics

Elvis... white trash 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
