Elvis Ate America Lyrics - U2

Elvis 

White trash 

Elvis 

The Memphis flash 

Elvis 

Didn't smoke hash 

Would have been a sissy without Johnny Cash 

Elvis 

Didn't dodge the draft 

Elvis 

Had his own aircraft 

Elvis 

Having a laugh 

Elvis 

On the Lisa Marie 

In a color photograph

Elvis 

Under the hood 

Elvis 

Cadillac blood 

Elvis 

Darling bud 

Flowered and return to the Mississippi Mud 

Elvis 

Ain't gonna rot 

Elvis 

In a Memphis plot 

Elvis 

Didn't hear the shot 

Dr. King died just across the lot from 

Elvis 

Vanilla ice cream

Elvis 

Girls of 14 

Elvis 

Memphis spleen 

Shooting tv's 

Reading Corinthians 13 

Elvis 

With God on his knees 

Elvis 

On three tv's 

Elvis 

Here come the killer bees 

Head full o' honey 

Elvis 

The bumper stickers 

Elvis 

The white knickers 

Elvis 

The white nigger 

Ate a cheeseburger and just kept getting bigger 

Elvis 

Sang to win 

Elvis 

The battle hymn 

Elvis 

The battle to be slim 

Elvis ate America before America ate him 

(Elvis spoken repeatedly at various times until song's end) 

Stamps 

Necromance 

Fans 

Psychopants 

The public enemy 

Don't mean shit to Chuck D 

Changed the center of gravity 

Made it slippy 

Hitler 

Nixon 

Christ 

Mishima 

Marcus 

Jackson 

The pelvis 

The Psalmist 

The genius 

The generous 

Forgive us 

Pray for us 

(Elvis)
