Fame and Fortune - Elvis Presley & JXL

She was a disbeliever No one could ever lead her She made the rules And you're the pawn in the game She tried so hard to make it She even tried to fake it She said "It's normal but to me it's insane" She might have been unlucky but I think it must have been Fortune and Fame Shot down in flames Isn't it strange How fortunes can change It's one slip away You give your life to please her She's got the world beneath her She takes the line of most resistance, she said She never lied about it Until she died without it If you could have seen her, then I'm sure you'd have said She might have been unlucky but I think it must have been Fortune and Fame Shot down in flames Isn't it strange How fortunes can change It's one slip away She might have been unlucky but I think it must have been Fortune and Fame Shot down in flames Isn't it strange How fortunes can change It's one slip away Words and Music: Pete Byrne and Rob Fisher © PJB Music

Fame and fortune, facts of life Most of what makes it is useless tripe So change the angle of the battle plan To hit the target Fame and fortune, fancy that Nothing but rabbits come out of the hat So try to catch a falling star, Crush it into dust and stuff it down a jar And throw it far away Now the point is back to front See-through people See-through monuments No empire The beginning, at the ending (One goes up, one goes down) Smash a face against the wall Grind a face into the ground - Oh No Pretty faces on the wall - They Fall Heat to boiling, disappear in the sky Slash the ashes, and bake into a pie Pretty faces on the ground - Oh No, No, No Fame and fortune is a stupid game and Fame and fortune is the game I play I play forever

Danny is my name, oh yes My name should be trouble My name should be woe For trouble and heartache Is all that I know But Danny Yes, Danny is my name (Oh, oh, oh yes, oh yes) My life has been empty My heart has been torn It must have been rainy, oh yes The night I was born Oh Danny Oh Danny is my name (Danny is my name) (Oh, oh yes) I'm so afraid of tomorrow So tired of today They say that love is the answer But love never came my way I'm writing a letter To someone I know So if you should find it, oh yes And if you're alone Oh Danny Yes, Danny is my name (Oh, oh, oh yes) Oh Danny Yes, Danny is my name Oh, oh, oh, oh

If you're lookin' for trouble You came to the right place If you're lookin' for trouble Just look right in my face I was born standin' up And talkin' back My daddy was a green-eyed mountain jack Because I'm evil My middle name is misery, yeah, yeah Well, I'm evil So don't you mess around with me I never looked for trouble But I never ran I don't take no orders From no kind of man I'm only made out Of flesh, blood and bone But if you're gonna start a rumble, don't you try it all alone Because I'm evil My middle name is misery, yeah Well, I'm evil So don't you mess around with me I'm evil, evil, evil as can be I'm evil, evil, evil as can be So don't mess around, don't mess around Don't mess around with me I'm evil, I'm evil, evil, evil So don't mess around, don't mess around with me I'm evil, I'll tell you how I'm evil So don't mess around with me Yeah
