Elvis
Viva Las Vegas! (You have to really read and think about the words, otherwise it will sound like lyrics.) I give this puzzle, little by little... Let me know if you've figured it out, though.
The gentleman caller in the blue suede shoes
He don't know what to do
He just wants to look good for you
--Good Time, Counting Crows
Elvis is my god…
--Codeword Elvis, Police
I don’t believe Elvis is dead.
--Everything Zen, Bush
Who in the hell d'you think you are
A super star
Well, right you are…
Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you off your feet
Better recognize your brothers
Ev'ryone you meet
Why in the world are we here
Surely not to live in pain and fear
Why on earth are you there
When you're ev'rywhere
Come and get your share
--Instant Karma, John Lennon
She’s a good girl. Loves her mama. Loves Jesus and America too…
She’s a good girl. She’s crazy ‘bout Elvis.
--Petty, Freefallin’
Put on my blue suede shoes
And I boarded the plane…
Then I'm walking in Memphis…
Saw the ghost of Elvis
On Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
Then I watched him walk right through…
But there's a pretty little thing
Waiting for the King
Down in the Jungle Room
And I sang with all my might
And she said;
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight"
--Marc Cohn, Graceland
I’m looking at ghosts and empties
But I’ve reason to believe
We all will be received
In Graceland
There is a girl in New York City
Who calls herself the human xxxxxoline
And sometimes when I’m falling, flying
Or tumbling in turmoil I say
Oh, so this is what she means
She means we’re bouncing into Graceland
Paul Simon, Graceland
She'll turn her music on you
You won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow
She's got Bette Davis eyes…
All the boys think she's a spy
She's got Bette Davis eyes
--Bette Davis Eyes, Kim Carnes
American girls are weather and noise…
playin the changes for all of the boys.
--American Girls, Countin’ Crows
Music the great communicator.
--Can’t Stop, Chili Peppers
We’re on this musical mission to help the others listen.
--Rage
Earth Angel, Earth Angel
Will you be mine
--Earth Angel, Elvis
Elvis is still the King…
Elvis is everywhere, man!
He's in everything.
He's in everybody...
Elvis is in your jeans.
He's in your cheesburgers
Elvis is in Nutty Buddies!
Elvis is in your mom!
--Elvis is everywhere, Mojo Nixon
What I got you got to give it in your mama.
--Give it away, Chili Peppers
I am you and you are me
Why's that such a mystery?
If you want it you got to believe
Who are we? We're who we are
Riding on the great big star
We've got to stand up if we're gonna be free yeah…
The Son of God is in our face
Offering us eternal grace
If you want it you've got to believe
'Cause being free is a state of mind.
--Believe, Lenny Kravitz
Most people think,
Great God will come from the skies,
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high.
But if you know what life is worth,
You will look for yours on earth:
And now you see the light,
You stand up for your rights. Jah!…
Get up, stand up! (So we can't give up the fight!)
Stand up for your rights! (Lord, Lord!)
We sick an' tired of-a your ism-skism game -
Dyin' 'n' goin' to heaven in-a Jesus' name, Lord.
We know when we understand:
Almighty God is a living man.
You can fool some people sometimes,
But you can't fool all the people all the time.
--Marley, Get up, stand up!
Cuz i tell you she's cool, she's devine
--Lady, Lenny Kravitz
