I was hallucinating I was hallucinating I was hallucinating Elvis Hawaii to Las Vegas Special treatment all the way Hallucinating Elvis Missing eighteen hours Losing oxygen to the brain Lying on the floor There's a limit How much more I can take Rhinestone inside my shoe 'Cos I'm turning into you now I was hallucinating I was hallucinating I was hallucinating Elvis I was hallucinating I was hallucinating I was hallucinating Elvis FBI are tapping the king's phone 74, he's trapped in his home Hidden camera, two-way mirror walls Walkie talkie, kung fu Then the president calls I was hallucinating Elvis Hawaii to Las Vegas Special treatment all the way Hallucinating Elvis Missing eighteen hours Losing oxygen to the brain Who ever has to know Tune in to my show What you see ain't what you get Shoot the movies in the TV set Elvis, Elvis... I was Hallucinating Elvis Hawaii to Las Vegas Special treatment all the way Hallucinating Elvis Missing eighteen hours Losing oxygen to the brain I was hallucinating Elvis Hawaii to Las Vegas Special treatment all the way Hallucinating Elvis Missing eighteen hours Losing oxygen to the brain I was hallucinating I was hallucinating I was hallucinating Elvis I was hallucinating I was hallucinating I was hallucinating Elvis, Elvis... Hallucinating, hallucinating...
