Calling elvis - is anybody home
calling elvis - I'm here all alone
did he leave the building
or can he come to the phone
calling elvis - I'm here all alone...
You couldn't really make it up could you, and it just had to be sung by 'Dire straits'!
Who on earth could think that bringing yet another poor copy of a long dead singer to the front of a 'campaign' to save the skin of a failed 'prime administrator' would make the slightest bit of difference?
This track is still a firm favourite from a few years ago, when I was given the album by a daught for my birthday...
My spies tell me that the ex-prime Administrator has booked a single room for the night of May 6 at the Heartbreak Hotel. Just a rumour, you understand
ReplyDeleteYes - seeing Elvis following Gordon Brown round made me think about how Gordon could match his fellow Labour politicians to the hit.

I know, I changed channel and then left the room in embarassment.
ReplyDeleteLakes 'always on my mind' made I laugh. Good list.
Ha ha ha Reevers, rumours are beginning to look a reality now, thank goodness!
ReplyDeleteGreat list Lakes, the fool must really have been sold a pup when it was suggested to him that this would appeal!
ReplyDeleteOr perhaps it was his idea, as he never listens to anyone...!
Pips, he's dodging from 'safe house' to 'safe house' to avoid the inevitable bile from normal people.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how much you get paid to be a Nulab Drone these days!
Killers, as we now have an MP in T. Wells, and have been cast away by Maidstone, Mrs S and I were wondering why nobody actually asked us in the first place!
ReplyDeleteMandelson does seem to be everywhere at the moment, trouble is, he's not seen there at all...
An Elvis tribute is what my father in law looks like - repleat with jet black quiff aged 70. Not a vote winner for me.
