john and elvis are dead (live) - george michael lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
close friend of mine as a child fell into a slumber
no sign of life since ’75
then, one day, whaddya know?
i guess god just called his number

[verse 2]
ooh, he called me up, he called me up and said
“i’ve been awake about a week
i’m thinkin’ ’bout askin’ the doctor
if he could put me back to sleep”
then he laughed and said
“hey, all the girls look all the same
don’t they know just what their mothers paid in blood and tears to change?”

[pre*chorus]
but the words that made me cry
the thing he softly said
stayed with me and keeps messin’ with my head

[chorus]
he said, “if jesus christ is alive and well
then how come john and elvis are dead?”

[verse 3]
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’ve given up so long ago
you can see it, it’s written on their faces
and the inside of their clothes
[pre*chorus]
but the words that made me cry
’cause i knew just what they meant
he turned to me and said

[chorus]
“hey boy, if jesus christ is alive and well
then how come john and elvis are dead?
tell me, if jesus christ is alive and well
then how come marvin and elvis are dead?”
i said, “if jesus christ is gonna save us from ourselves
then how come peace, love and elvis are dead?”

[outro]
ooh, how come?
