The Toilet That Killed Elvis

de That Handsome Devil

Doin' heavy drugs with petty thugs by the entry of the club
We didn't get too many hugs when we were young
She was beautiful and so she stripped
It's sad but no one gave a shit
Worked double shifts, saved up tips
But really no one gave a shit

Our heroes were weirdos with no fears or career goals
Through the years they disappeared
Sometimes it feels like they're still here though
And I'm hurtin' but we all are
And I've heard there are no small parts
We are all stars, go on, uh huh, tra la la la

I want the toilet that killed Elvis
And the needle that killed Sid
Give me the bottle that killed Billie
And the bullet that killed Big

The whiskey took our Winehouse
Our Janis, and our Jim
You'll get older and you'll realize
They were just a bunch of kids

A disclaimer for the neighbors
The strangers, teenage content creators
Just trying to be famous makes for dangerous behaviors
But whether you're a lover or fighter, run for your life
Or become a survivor
Comfortable under the cover's attire
Up for another all-nighter

Our heroes were weirdos, deviate from ones and zeroes
They just left us here though, waiting for a miracle
And you're hurtin' but we all are
And I heard there are no small parts
We are all stars, go on, uh huh, tra la la la

I want the toilet that killed Elvis
And the needle that killed Sid
Give me the bottle that killed Billie
And the bullet that killed Big

The whiskey took our Winehouse
Our Janis, and our Jim
You'll get older and you'll realize
They were just a bunch of kids

Mad men build castles in the sky (castles in the sky)
Geniuses build the stairs to them
But most of them don't ever even try (most don't even try)
'Cause failure is embarrassing

Mad men build castles in the sky (castles in the sky)
Geniuses build the stairs to them
But most I know just die (most I know just die)

New ways of living, and new thinking
Have laid the foundation
For most of what is good in life today
With the promise of more tomorrow
