Parody of Black Velvet by Alannah Myles (davidtanny)

The King of Rock n Roll loved his comfort food. His diet in his later years was rumored to add up to anywhere from 30,000 to 100,000 calories a day. (Captain Wayne)

For you history buffs, the term "Fat Elvis" came about in 1992, when the US post office let the public vote on which stamp design to use to commemorate The King: early Elvis or mid-1970s Elvis (terms which quickly turned into "Skinny Elvis" and "Fat Elvis"). (Captain Wayne)

Song Lyrics:

Lyrics & vocals: Carla Ulbrich, Joe Giacoio, Steve Goodie engineer, all instruments: Steve Goodie --- Peanut butter and banana in a milkshake Loaf of bread filled with meat and deep fried Metabolism’s getting slower when you’re older It’s not that easy to work off an entire pie He ballooned as he consumed everything Left the building hours before Still they were screamin’ for Fat Elvis oh he was what he ate Only fitting now his face is on a plate A food addiction brought the singer to his knees Fat Elvis – he liked him some grease Up in Graceland shot a hole through his TV But the fans’ devotion was impossible to shake Harem Scarem didn’t scare ‘em from the movies Couldn’t lose ‘em with the plot of Clambake Karate moves on the stage I’m telling you Dressed like a matador And what’s with the pompadour? Fat Elvis and his Las Vegas style Fat Elvis and his sideburns gone wild Imitation isn’t always flattery Fat Elvis- American cheese Everyone everywhere afraid to tell him he truth So he dug his own grave with a fork and a spoon And some Quaaludes What? Too soon? Fat Elvis on a 29-cent stamp Fat Elvis on a potato chip bag clamp Refrigerator magnets or box set of CDs Get your Fat Elvis- right this way please Fat Elvis in his sunglasses and cape Fat Elvis so much easier to impersonate Forever frozen in the 1970s Fat Elvis Rest in peace Catchin’ some Zs You kids eat your peas (Captain Wayne)
