Did It For Elvis Songtext
Well I went down to Graceland
In nineteen-ninety-three
I signed up for the tour
We're gonna put on quite a spree
Stained the walls and ceilings
The Jungle Room turned red
The tourists all ran screaming
And the tour guide lost his head

And I did it for Elvis
For the once and future king
Tell all the unbelievers
It's the day of reckoning
Yes I did it for Elvis
Yes I kinda lost control
That's why I kill, kill, kill
For the king of rock and roll

One night as I lay sleepin'
He took me in a dream
Said his soul it could not rest
Until I done this thing
He didn't want to be remembered
As a fat and drugged out clown
So I'll take his rhinestone effigy
And tear it fuckin' down

And I did it for Elvis
For the once and future king
Tell all the unbelievers
It's the day of reckoning
Yes I did it for Elvis
Yes I kinda lost control
That's why I kill, kill, kill
For the king of rock and roll

Let's go
(solo)
Now you're dead

Well now my work is almost done
The bodies lye on the floor
And Elvis whispers in my ear
His soul can rest once more
Graceland has been purified
It's sins all washed away
And when the doctors ask me why
Well here it what I'll say

I did it for Elvis
For the once and future king
Tell all the unbelievers
It's the day of reckoning
Yes I did it for Elvis
Yes I kinda lost control
That's why I kill, kill, kill
For the king of rock and

I did it for Elvis
For the once and future king
Tell all the unbelievers
It's the day of reckoning
Yes I did it for Elvis
Yes I kinda lost control
That's why I kill, kill, kill
For the king of rock and roll

(I'd like a deep fried meatloaf sandwich with an extra side of chili cheese fries and just a dump some whipped cream on that and give me a cube of butter on some Ritalin.)
