David Gray - Elvis Is Back In The Building lyrics

Your rating:


A man of modest 



beginnings had the 



nerve to try to 



change the world



Fought like a lion



even though he was 



cryin' in a 



sea of deep despair



tried to hide the 



energy



tried to hide the 



light



afraid of being



turned in



grappling with his nerves



a mind working at the speed of lightening



a man with a heart of gold



just tryin' to do the right thing



bringing joy to countless thousands



and what did we do to him?



as he grew OLD and outdated



we did something utterly APPALLING!



made him out to be a caricature



nothing more than a joke 



treated him like T R A S H 



As he grew old and outdated



And, yes, we did the same thing



to marilyn



I WANT THEM TO KNOW 



That what we did was so very wrong



We TORE out their hearts out



When they gave us so much



I want them to know 



that we are so VERY SORRY  



About what WE did 



I will say a prayer for THEM



I want them to know 



THAT OUR HATS ARE OFF TO THEM !



because they were such a generous souls



such good hearts 



I suspect that their G H O S T s



are still with us and that they will soon 



RISE AGAIN



to sing another day



to sing another day  



to sing another day



In a mind-blowing EARTH-shattering way



Because good souls never die



Good spirits NEVER DIE



Believe me when i say 



Elvis is BACK in the building



BABY



Elvis is BACK in the building 



BABY



Elvis is BACK in the building



BABY
