Elvis Left The Building

Through the backdoor he went, he preferred it

out to the dark street completely hidden

because that was the only way he fit 

through the door without his getting ridden

by as many hangers on could hold on

the pretty girls screaming, the gossips, good ol' boys

they all take their piece of meat whereupon

stripped naked of all of life's earthly joys

the Colonel makes sure to get his cut of half

of everything including his soul

sacrificing him as his golden calf

to worship the cash cow's blood in a bowl

he promises to handle all life's ills

following to mop up where the blood spills
