Graceland

I wish I lived in Graceland
But I only had one day
A postcard from the main land
is all I have today

Forty thousand million
and a Rolls Royce engine
couldn't take me anywhere

Yes, I tried with aspirin
and a nice calm weekend
but my heart has left me here

I wish I had that skin tan
that you are born into
They'd see me as a warm man
just like they're seeing you

Forty thousand million...

I drown in my drool
Over all the goodies that they get
I drown in a pool
In a pool of my own sweat

Forty thousand million...
