Elvis and Nixon had it in for Lennon

One heavenly morning down in Graceland

Elvis slipped out of his golden silky sheets

While Cilla cooked him up a big breakfast

the radio played all the latest hits

But this made Elvis feel uneasy coz every song sadly wasn’t his

He felt terribly afraid someone else would steal his fame

Coz after all he was crowned the king

One dismal day inside the white house

Mr. Nixon was wailing over bad press

The war in Vietnam was revealed a total sham

And the leader of hippies was causing him distress

On a peaceful cold Montreal morning

John Lennon was promoting peace in bed

As the masses praised his spirit and conduct

A couple of douchebags were butt hurt instead

So, Elvis and Nixon got together

Nixon made him a member of the FBI

Over burgers and beers, they shared their greatest fears

And both agreed if he doesn’t leave then the hippy has to die

Elvis and Nixon had it in for Lennon

He won his case to immigrate

So, they sent him to heaven

Elvis and Nixon had it in for Lennon

He never stood a chance and never saw it coming

Elvis and Nixon had it in for Lennon

Coz of his god given talent and wish to lay down all weapons

Elvis and Nixon had it in for Lennon

But all he tried to do was prevent Armageddon
