ELOUISE (to the Tune of Growin` Up) — текст песни (Bruce Springsteen)





Well, what power of God does a nun use to hold up parish priests
And what makes a good cop let go a beautiful theif
Oh, and how does the queen know she got hold that manna honey
Oh and what makes an old woman give a young man all her money
Well late in the night `neath that pale moonlight the power comes over me
And its all Elouise yeah
I`m Turning Into Elvis (and There`s Nothing I Can Do)

...kissed the babysitter. She screamed and I told her it was just the beast in me.
And on my way out of the house I shot out my TV
I went down to the corner luncheonette and said Sally "fried peanut butter and banana will do(?)"
I`m turning into Elvis and there`s nothing I can do

I threw out my wife and family I took off my wedding ring
I told my friends and neighbors to refer to me now as "King"
I put a chainlink fence around my ranch house and on the gate a sign that reads "Graceland II"
I`m turning into Elvis and there`s nothing I can do

I visited my mama`s grave and I headed out to Hollywood and I signed a picture with MGM
I play a rebellious beachboy racecar driver who fucks a nun in the end
In the last scene I whip out my big guitar and show her a little Memphis-style kung-fu
I`m turning into Elvis and there`s nothing I can do

But I drove on straight to Vegas and I stopped in the first old stripper bar.
Found me a little hooker that looked just like Ann-Margaret and we rumba`d in my sports car.
Well me and my drinking buddies turned my lovin` home into a frikkin` zoo.
I`m turning into Elvis and there`s nothing I can do

Well he came to me last night in a dream looking just like he did in `57.
He said "Son that guitar is a wonderful thing but it can be the living devils` friend.
On the other hand there`s sex-starved women, millions of dollars, and anything you want to do."
I`m turning into Elvis and there`s nothing I can do
