Elvis Has Just Left The Building
Composer(s): Frank Zappa
Performer(s): Frank Zappa
Elvis has just left the building
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building
To climb up that heavenly stair
He gave away Cadillacs once in a while
Had sex in his underpants
Yes, he had style!
Bell-bottom jump-suits?
That's them in a pile
But he don't need'em now
'Cause he's makin' Jesus smile!
Elvis has just left the building
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building
To climb up that heavenly stair
The Angels all love him
He brings them relief
With droplets of moisture
From his handkerchief!
Cher'bim 'n ser'phim
Whizz over his head
Jesus, let him come back!
We don't want Elvis dead
Elvis has just left the building
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building
To climb up that heavenly stair
So what if he looks like a wart-hog in heat?
He knows we all love him
We'll just watch him eat
So take down the foil
From his hotel retreat
And bring back The King
For the man in the street!
Elvis has just left the building
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building
To climb up that heavenly stair
He's up there with Jesus, in a big purple chair
