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!...

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!...

All Shook Up
Elvis Presley high on drugs
with gyrating hips and shrugs
sang many a great song
chubby cheeks, sideburns long
ere guitar strings pulled all plugs.

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

Premium Member Outside Presley's Birthplace
Often greatness comes from humble roots
Where none-expected talents lay hidden
Beneath veneers of undeveloped yearning,

Elvis Presley in Tupelo, Mississippi]

Aura Lee
Have you ever heard the Civil War song “Aura Lee”? You may find the tune has some familiarity. Remember “Love Me Tender” by the late Elvis Presley? “Aura Lee” has the exact same melody.

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 relief

leaving the theatre
when you say to a friend,

'thank christ everyone behaved.'...
