John And Elvis Are Dead (Remastered 2006) - George Michael
Close friend of mine
as a child fell into a slumber
No sign of life since 75
Then one day he just
what do you know
I guess God just
called his number
He called me up
he called me up and said
I've been awake about a week
I'm thinking about
asking the doctor
If he could put me
back to sleep
Then he laughed and said
Hey all the girls
they look the same
Don't they know just
what their mothers
Paid in blood
and tears to change
But the words that made me cry
The thing he softly said
It stayed with me
it keeps messing with my head
He said
If Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come
John & Elvis are dead

Youth beautiful youth
We walked through the walls
until we found the truth
And said
Change it
it's ugly just change it
Everyone we used to know
Must have given up
so long ago
You can see it
it's written on their faces
And the inside of their clothes
But the words
that made me cry
Cos I knew just
what they meant
He turned to me and said
Hey boy
if Jesus Christ is
alive and well
Then how come
John & Elvis are dead

Tell me if Jesus Christ
is alive and well
Then how come
Marvin & Elvis are dead

I said
If Jesus Christ is going to
save us from ourselves
How come peace
love and Elvis are dead
