I’ve never understood why a rock and roller that died of a drug overdose gets a ‘pass’ when others...say Jimi Hendrix, doesn’t.

The only connection I have with Elvis is I was in bootcamp the day he died, and they announced it on the PA system.

No offense to those of you that love ‘The King’ and are fixing friend peanutbutter&jelly sandwiches through your tears.....

I'd MUCH rather see THIS movie Presley/Nixon, than the fictionalized Frost/Nixon:

Peanut butter and banana sandwiches rock.

Anyone ever had a Fool's Gold Loaf? That was supposed to be of his faves as well.

Yes, at least one New York paper has a “hunka, hunka burnin’ love” for a “whole lotta” peanut money just to the south of them.

Elvis is Everywhere - Mojo Nixon

When I look out into your eyes out there,
When I look out into your faces,
You know what I see?
I see a little bit of Elvis
In each and every one of you out there.

Let me tell you.
Wellllllll...

Elvis is everywhere,
Elvis is everything,
Elvis is everybody,
Elvis is still the King.

Man oh man What I want you to see
Is that the big E’s
Inside of you and me

Elvis is everywhere, man!
He’s in everything.
He’s in everybody.

Elvis is in your jeans.
He’s in your cheesburgers.
Elvis is in Nutty Buddies!
Elvis is in your mom!
He’s in everybody.

He’s in the young, the old,
the fat, the skinny,
the white, the black
the brown and the blue
people got Elvis in them too.

Elvis is in everybody out there.
Everybody’s got Elvis in them.
Everybody except one person that is,
Yeah, one person!
The evil opposite of Elvis,
The Anti-Elvis!
Anti-Elvis got no Elvis in him,
Lemme tell ya.

Michael J. Fox has no Elvis in him.

And Elvis is in Joan Rivers
but he’s trying to get out, man! He’s trying to get out!
Listen up Joanie Baby!

Elvis is everywhere,
Elvis is everything,
Elvis is everybody,
Elvis is still the King.
Man oh man
What I want you to see
Is that the big E’s
Inside of you and me

Man, there’s a lot of unexplained phenomenon
out there in the world.
Lot of things people say
What the heck’s going on?
Let me tell you!

Who built the pyramids?
ELVIS!
Who built Stonehenge?
ELVIS!

Yeah, man you see guys walking down the street
pushing shopping carts,
and you think they’re talking to Allah,
they’re talking to themselves.
Man, no they’re talking to ELVIS!
ELVIS! ELVIS!

You know whats going on in that Bermuda Triangle?
Down in the Bermuda Triangle?
Elvis needs boats.
Elvis needs boats.
Elvis Elvis Elvis
Elvis Elvis Elvis
Elvis needs boats.

Aahh! The Sailing Elvis!
Captain Elvis!
Commodore Elvis it is!
Yeah man, you know people from outer space,
people from outer space they come up to me.
They don’t look like like Doctor Spock.
They don’t look like Klingons,
all that Star Trek jive.
They look like Elvis.
ELVIS!
Everybody in outer space looks like Elvis.

Cause Elvis is a perfect being.
We are all moving in perfect peace and harmony towards Elvisness

Soon all will become Elvis.
Everything everywhere will be Elvis.

Why do you think they call it evolution anyway?
It’s really Elvislution!
Elvislution!

Elvis is everywhere
Elvis is everything
Elvis is everybody
Elvis is still the King.
Man oh man What I want you to see
Is that the big E’s Inside of you and me.

That’s right ladies and gentlemen,
The time has come!
Time has come to talk
To that little bit of Elvis inside of you.

Talk to it!
Call it up!
Say “Elvis, heal me!”
“Save me, Elvis!”
“Make me be born again in the perfect Elvis light.”

That’s right!
You’ve got that Elvis inside of you
And he’s talkin to you.
He says he wants you to sing!
Everybody’s got to sing like the king!

Like the king
Get that leg going now
Get your lip too.
Not no fool Billy Idol lip either.

Everybody!
Yeah, we’re rockin’ now!
Elvis is with us.
He’s with us and he’s speaking to us.

He says “Peoples!”
“Peoples!”
“Everybody!”
“Everybody got to sing!”

Elvis is everywhere
Elvis is everything
Elvis is everybody
Elvis is still the King.
Man oh man What I want you to see
Is that the big E’s
Inside of you and me.

Elvis is everywhere
Elvis is everything
Elvis is everybody
Elvis is still the King.
Man oh man What I want you to see
Is that the big E’s
Inside of you and me.

Elvis!
