I followed you as far as Spike
But there were some I didn't like at all
I said I liked it all
Goodbye cruel world and almost blue
And half of trust, to name a few
The twilight of your embers
I couldn't see how true your aim was
Elvis, I don't love you
Elvis, I don't love you
Bought every single reissue
Read each appalling interview
In which you talked, like rock
Was just some silly phase
That you went through
But even when your heart got set
On Bacharach and string quartets
My ringing ears drew closer
To parse the pose of the composer
Elvis, I don't love you
Elvis, I don't love you
I felt your pain, it didn't hurt
Tastes like cold revenge
Maybe just deserts
You'll never know
How much you meant to me
I think I speak for all of us
When now I say, "You've gotta go"
And if you must, you must, you must
We all enjoyed your brutal youth
We'd like it back, to tell the truth
We grew apart, we both know how
I hope that you're happy now
Elvis, I don't love you
Elvis, I don't love you
Elvis, I don't love you
Elvis, I don't love you
Oh, I just don't know where to begin
