Tippin’ back, his head relaxin’

Thank you very much, and I’m laughin’

Elvis is a track recorded in the late noughties, and featured on the Sparkle Jump Rope Queen profile.

Lanasparklejumpropequeen

The song is available on the My Space page under that name, along with Axl Rose Husband and Blue Ribbon.

Del Rey commented on youtube that she wrote it at 13. It is 3 minutes and 52 seconds long.

It is an homage to Elvis Presley, someone she has expressed a great love for previously. Though she had always had a connection to him since the track.

Lyrics[]

Platinum and vale acrylics

Skim the paper for the critics

Baby’s breathin’ Elvis lyrics

On the cover bar

Lay in motel lounges, singin’

Spotlight on the band is swingin’

Chateau Marmont, memories fadin’

Hope is very far


Elvis, where are you when I need you most

White comp sequin jumpsuit ghost

Pick me up and make a toast

Champagne in the air


Tippin’ back, his head relaxin’

Thank you very much, and I’m laughin’

All my chantilly lace is catchin’

Baby, on the chandelier

Sweepin’ scents and blue hydrangea

Summer hail and summer stranger

Baby, he’s in constant danger

Help is very far


You look like a Florida native

“Are you,” I said “at the rate of

Slow molasses from the state of Vermont

with a southern drawl”


Elvis, where are you when I need you most

White comp sequin jumpsuit ghost

Pick me up and make a toast

Champagne in the air

Tippin’ back, his head relaxin’

Thank you very much, and I’m laughin’

All my chantilly lace is catchin’

Baby, on the chandelier


He said he’d come to welcome warn me

Just your diamond to adorn me

Come to be and see the one and only

For my final year

Well, thank you


Elvis, where are you when I need you most

White comp sequin jumpsuit ghost

Pick me up and make a toast

Champagne in the air

Tippin’ back, his head relaxin’

Thank you very much, and I’m laughin’

All my chantilly lace is catchin’

Baby, on the chandelier

It’s catchin’ on that chandelier

It’s catchin’ on that chandelier

Where are you when I need you most
