WHY DOES TRAGIC TED PLAY THE SAME ELVIS RECORD FOR HOURS
EVERY DAY?
He might believe he’s Elvis.
The music might convince him
his one-bed flat is Graceland.
He might think he’s the Fonz.
He might be living out a fantasy
in which it’s still the Fifties
and he’s the tough young greaser
the girls all want to date.
The music might remind him of The One,
a love who died young,
caught forever in his memory
swinging tipsy round a lamppost
on the last night in his life
when he was ever truly happy.
Elvis Presley -- Glen Fortune Banse
Fonzie Happy Days -- Tony Rubin
