Poem
Viva Las Venus Just got back from Venus It's a secret, don't ask how I really mean it You know, government and all I am going to tell you though Most of what I seen Oh, remember that fella Elvis? Yep, he's still the king With a planet full of women Big, short, skinny, long and tall Brunette, red head, black and brown Don't worry guys, there's plenty of blonds Most men would call it heaven And give their right arm as a witness Flying there at any cost Which brings me back to Elvis You see Elvis was never much keen on All of that fortune and fame He did it all with a purpose Allow me here to explain Being a shy kid from the country For entertainment he'd read comic books Read one once about the Women of Venus And that right there was all that it took He borrowed an old beat up guitar Figured he could make a few bucks He'd build a rocket ship out in the barn And leave on the day it was ready to launch But alas fame and fortune took him by storm As his music and charm did us Being caught up in it all for years to come He'd just have to wait for his trip to Venus Of course over time it got overwhelming As his mind ventured back to the ship Down on the farm still hold up in the barn The only solution...fake his own death And that's where today you'll find him Viva Las Venus my friend Elvis in a world of women Where he still reigns as king 39 years ago today marks the anniversary of the tragic death of Elvis... but we know the truth don't we.
