Two Elvis songs:

From "Strict Time":

"Thinking of grand larceny
Smoking the everlasting cigarette of chastity"

And from "Posession"
"You lack lust, you're so lackluster"

Westerberg and Morrissey were my faves!

I know we were only supposed to put a verse or line and I went and posted the whole version of Forever Young so I want to apologize in advance. It's just the song means a lot in my household.
