Mister Elvis Presley 
Sang his songs expressively 
In Aloha From Hawaii,
He sang them just for me, aieee!

I was 15 when he sang just for me
Straight from Hawaii via TV,
My heart skipped a beat,
I jumped from my seat,
His music had changed my reality.

Elvis has now left...

Elvis Presley was on stage with his hips swinging
His movements kept women from hearing his singing
He could make so much money without moving his lips
All he had to do was go on stage and gyrate those hips

For Battle of the Clerihew # 2 contest of...

Elvis Presley, Graceland
Hair black as snow's
An awkward crooked.                            
Smile, to boot his stiffer
Upper lips of red wine.

His gorgeous swagger,
Lingered all...

Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley, the King
A voice like velvet, he did bring
With gyrating moves, dads cried he’s no saint
But those gyrations made the girls scream and faint!...

Long live "The King"
gone to soon before his time
man, he could sing
he sang and acted earning every nickle and dime

His voice so diverse
he was absolutely one of a kind
every teenager was so immersed,
when he sang"Always on My Mind"

Young and handsome till the day he died
although...

Premium Member why didn't Austin Butler start singing 'trouble' by Elvis Presley during the fight scene in Dune
it was therefore disappointing
but what ain't

hardcore science fiction
climate fiction

ecological lollocks
hero's journey balloon juice

Patrick Stewart on the baliset
is the definition of rock and roll

keep your expectations low going into the cinema
keep them low on the film

keep them low on the audience
for there can be no greater...

Elvis Presley: the Same Amount of Time
You've been dead for the same amount of time that you lived, forty-two years.
You were loved and your death devastated each and every one of your peers.
You didn't perform in all fifty states, one state that you missed was Montana.
You performed your last concert on...

Premium Member You Were Always On My Mind
Maybe I didn't listen when you told me
Your heart was gentle and kind
Maybe I didn't understand, but you could
have shown me...

All the reasons you were going to move on
All the feelings that were finally gone
All the chances I had actually blown!

Maybe I didn't know you
because...

Gutsy Guitars
Whilst Bruno Mars ascends new stars
Elvis Presley haunts old boudoirs
Second to none
They both have fun
Just strumming their gutsy guitars....

Blue Moon Over Graceland
When Elvis Presley dreamed on high
All he wanted to do was fly
Like Priscilla's blue moon
He ballooned with each tune
And it sure made his mama cry!...

Premium Member Marilyn and Elvis
Marilyn and Elvis, iconic, and well-loved, cherished, beloved.
Loved and beloved in the same sentence? Only for these two.
They both have a vulnerability and a tragic back story
Elvis had to live for his twin, Aaron, who died in the womb

Marilyn had to reinvent herself, so someone...
