WEIRD AL YANKOVIC - Velvet Elvis lyrics

rate me

My life, it used to be incomplete

'Till I saw what I was looking for at a drive-in swap meet

My life it won't be the same again

Now I'm proud to say the king lives on inside my den

Oh, it's all I live for, it's all I need

My velvet Elvis

My velvet Elvis

My velvet Elvis means the world to me

Although he may not be worth much dough

He means much more to me than some old Rembrandt or Van Gogh

Check out those sideburns, there's nothing greater

You can tell that he's no velvet Elvis imitator

Oh, it's all I live for, it's all I need

My velvet Elvis

My velvet Elvis

My velvet Elvis

Oh, now you can't you see

My velvet Elvis

My velvet Elvis

My velvet Elvis means the world to me

In my own private Graceland

In my own little shrine to the king

I don't want nothin' else

No, I don't need anything

Don't need no lava lamp

Don't need no soap on a rope

No pictures of Mexican kids with those really big eyes

Or dogs playing poker

When I'm at home watching my TV

I know the king is always looking down on me

He looks so handsome, he stands so tall

So glad he's big enough to cover up that hole in the wall

(Velvet Elvis) He's so fuzzy

(Velvet Elvis) He's so great

(Velvet Elvis) Never ages

(Velvet Elvis) Never puts on weight

(Velvet Elvis) Look at those rhinestones

(Velvet Elvis) He's just so fine

(Velvet Elvis) You can look but don't touch now

(Velvet Elvis) 'Cause he's mine all mine
