lyrics

When Elvis Came To London

When Elvis came to London I was there
When Elvis came to London, baby that I swear!
There was me, Tommy Steele, Joe, Marty, Johnny Kidd
Cliff Richard showed up but we all hid
When Elvis came to London I was there

When Elvis came to London I was there
When Elvis Presley came to London baby that I swear
Well he snuck on out of Germany on a twenty-four pass
Cause he wanted to see this beautiful city of London
And I was there

Well, liar, liar your pants on fire, your nose is as long as the telephone wire
Liar, liar, liar your pants on fire
Well, liar, liar your pants on fire, your nose is as long as the telephone wire
Liar, liar, liar your pants on fire

There was a blue Moon over London and I was there
There was a blue moon over London, mama that I swear
We couldn’t take him for a ride in an underground train
‘cause the chicks would’ve fainted and the cats gone insane
When Elvis came to London I was there – curl that lip baby!

Well we drove him up to Buckingham palace to check out the Queen
Well she threw off her crown and she fell down to her knees - and said
Why, you’re the wildest cat that I ever did see
Come on King Honey let’s TCB!!!
When Elvis Came to London I was there

Well, liar, liar pants on fire, your nose is as long as the telephone wire
Liar, liar, liar your pants on fire
Well, liar, liar your pants on fire, your nose is as long as the telephone wire
Liar, liar, liar your pants on fire

Well we took him down to Soho to the Colony room
But there was too much cussin’ and we had to leave there soon
Well the King was getting’ hungry so we jumped in the car,
But he wasn’t impressed with the Wimpy Bar
When Elvis came to London baby I was there

When Elvis came to London I was there – liar, liar, pants on fire
When Elvis came to London, mama that I swear – I SWEAR!
When Elvis came to London baby, when Elvis came to London
When Elvis came to London I was there, I was there, I was there
I was there, I was there!
