Cover art for A Century of Elvis lyrics by Belle & Sebastian

If you listen very carefully to the words it appears that the band is very clever in the way they portry the Elvis character. 'Elvis' shows signs of being the dead entertainer in hiding, but when you look at it from a different angle that maybe 'Elvis' is just a stray dog that lives in their neighbourhood who visits them. He never speaks. Comes by every night. Likes squirrels. It's just a cute little song. That sort of makes you want to laugh, sort of makes you want to cry.
