3xs and hold on last
How many times can you jump out of the cupboard
Before someone gets suspicious or someone gets discovered
You can live forever in a split second of fame
Come on down, the price is right, whats you name
While crocodile makes good shoes
And a dog may changes his coat
I can't change what's written on your
face tonight and I quote
*Chorus*
Oh I wish you could see
Quite how much you could mean to me
(
)
You worthless thing
(
)
If you were ten feet taller and almost handsome
I might pay this kings ransom
(
)
You worthless thing
Verse 2
same*
They commit blue murder along union avenue
Then they sell you souvenir matches
Nightclubs full of grave robbers from Memphis, Tennessee
And Las Vegas body snatchers
And he's carrying a warning
Can't you see how his eyes glint
Keep you bloody hands off my life
Your affectionate fingerprint
All the cars and pills and girls
Who tore his shirt to tatters
Do you know how tall he was
(
)
Cause that is all that really matters
Do you know his mother's last name
Do you think that he's divine
You've seen the film
(
)
You've read the book
(
[
hold])
You're drinking vintage Elvis Presley wine
Verse 3
same*
Bored out of your tiny mind while life is twice as large
They'll cut her down to size on television
She's available and beautiful, but with more time to devote
They're going to take this cable now
And stick it down your throat
So this is an obituary
Which should be right and fitting
For every clock work cat and
Conceivable kitten
Full band fade on (
