Elvis And The Disagreeable Backing Singers Lyrics by Neil Innes

1979

I got a big blue suit
(he's got a big blue suit!)
I got a date tonight
(he's got a date tonight!)
And when I see my babe
(and when he sees his babe!)
I'm gonna root toot toot
(he's gonna root toot toot!)
I'm gonna root toot toot
(he's gonna root toot toot!)
In my big blue suit
(in his big blue suit!)
Well you can take all my money and throw it away!
(aaahhhhhh) (yeahhhhhh!)
(Cheering)
Thank you very much, that was called...
(thank you very much, that was called!)
Okay fellas
(okay fellas!)
No no, it wasn't called that
(no no, it wasn't called that!)
Look do you guys have to keep repeating everything I say in close harmony?
(of course we do we're backin' singers!)
Well uh, huh, try being a little less forward
(big head!)
What?
(big head!)
Take it easy guys!
(just because you're out front, it don't make you a better person!)
I never said it...
(it gets really boring singing DOO-WAH DOO-WAH all the time!)
Well somebody has to be out front
(why you, go on tell us, why you?)
I guess I move well on stage
(move well? moooove well??? You should see what you look like from behind!!!)
