Lyrics: Stiff Little Fingers. Guitar And Drum. Who Died And Made You Elvis?.


It's not a perfect world
But nobody said it was, yeah nobody lied to you
And it's not fair
But when has it ever been and when will it ever be
There's a lot you should learn
And with your ability learn some humility cos

Who died and made you Elvis?
Who died and made you Elvis?
Who died and made you Elvis?
Who died and made you King?

So you believe your press
You think you're the greatest thing convinced you're the big Tam'
You're an honoured guest
And we're glad to have you and we're all picking up the tab
There's something you should know about
And it's time you got it straight, I hope i'm not too late so

Who died and made you Elvis?
Who died and made you Elvis?
Who died and made you Elvis?
Who died and made you King?

Who died?
Who cashed their chips in and left you in charge?
Who died and made you king?

Now in the scheme of things
You're no more important than that guy standing next to you.
So stand up straight
And be what you ought to be and not what you think you are
There's a lot you could give if you'd
just be yourself
There's a lot more you'd get if you'd
Drop the superstar and just be who you are
