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
