Tabloids scream
  Elvis seen at a shopping mall
  That's the kind of talk
  That makes my stomach crawl
  
  Picture a zombie Elvis
  In a tacky white jump suit
  Just imagine a rotting Elvis
  Shopping for fresh fruit
  You can't 'cause
  
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  
  
  When the king died
  He was all alone
  I heard that when he died
  He was sitting on his throne
  
  Alas poor Elvis
  They made us know you well
  Now you dwell forever
  In the Heartbreak Hotel
  
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  
  Elvis was a hero to most
  But that's beside the point
  A Black man taught him how to sing
  And then he was crowned king
  
  The pelvis of Elvis
  Too dangerous for the masses
  
  They cleaned him up and sent him to Vegas
  Now the masses are his slave
  Slave? Slave
  Yes, even from the grave
  
  Elvis is dead

  I've got a reason to believe
  We all won't be received at Graceland
  I've got a reason to believe
  We all won't be received at Graceland
  I've got a reason to believe
  We all won't be received at Graceland
  I've got a reason to believe
  We all won't be received at Graceland
  
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
  Elvis is dead
