I Try To Think About Elvis

(gary burr)

I try to think about elvis
Memphis
Oprah in the afternoon
I try to think about palm trees
Fig leaves
The creature from the black lagoon
I try to think about high heels
And good deals
Anything to get me through
I just can't concentrate
You're all i think about these days

I try to contemplate the cosmos
What goes
Round and round the sky at night
I try to think about champagne
Freight trains
Slowly rolling out of sight
I try to focus on the headlines
Street crimes
Everytime i think i might
I just can't concentrate
You're all i think about these days

My mind wanders where it will
When it settles right on you
I forget what i should say
I forget what i should do

My mind wanders where it will
When it settles right on you
I forget what i should say
I forget what i should do

I try to think about shakespeare
Leap year
The beatles or the rolling stones
I try to think about hair-do's
Tattoos
Sushi bars and saxophones
I try to think about the talk shows
New clothes
But i guess i should have known
I just can't concentrate
You're all i think about these days
You're all i think about these days
