          Hey, Elvis is dead, not feeling too good myself
          Elvis is dead, not feeling too good myself
          But I'll be alright, soon as I get enough help

    You know, the tv preachers an' talkin' head screechers
    Yeah, they like to get up on a soapbox and shout
    But it seems like none of 'em really know what the hell they're talkin' about

          Elvis is dead, not feeling too good myself
          But I'll be alright, soon as I get enough help

    Yeah, the liberal choirs and climate deniers
    Like to blame each other for the twisted shape we're in
    But Lord knows, we've all made a contribution to the global pile of sin

          Elvis is dead, not feeling too good myself
          But we'll be alright, soon as we get enough help

    Back in happy days of a Graceland haze
    Folks earned enough money to afford a nice home
    Both sides of the record got some radio plays
    An' homeless veterans, mothers and children didn't roam our streets alone

          But Elvis is dead, not feeling too good myself
          But we'll be alright, soon as we get enough help

          Yeah, the great American dream's collectin' dust up on the history shelf
          Will we be alright? . . .
