This song is about the death of Elvis Presley (it's in '77) and how the king of rock 'n' roll role is being passed on and on to the next starman who will possess it for a couple of years and himself will give the throne away to the next superstar.
In a way it's a very interesting prophecy about '94-'95 too as it was when another king dead (Kurt Cobain).
