Elvis Decanter — текст песни (The Vandals)

Collecting dust inside that liquor store `till you bought it for me
A decanter full of whiskey in the image of the King
The more I drank from it the less I saw of you
That bottle`s empty now and you and I are through
When you gave me the King of gifts I didn`t know what to say
Except a hundred and fifty dollars in an awful lot to pay
For a girl like you who doesn`t make much money, anyway
But you cared enough to put away a little everyday
For that Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me
A fitting symbol of our love, and empty likeness of the King
If I had made it last or filled it up would it have changed a thing?
It`s just an Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me
They told me I should save it, it`d be worth something
Someday
But me I couldn`t wait and the King of Rock got lighter everyday
Soon it was half empty and I was half as close to you
Then I drank the rest, and should`ve guessed I drank our love in two
Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me
In the name of Elvis, why did you have to leave?
When I love you and I need you desperately tonite
