Lyrics:
The last Elvis in Madison square
Billboards sparkle off his liquorice hair
Last year’s papers blow round his flairs
At his cassettes crescendo he kicks at the air
No one’s clapping, so he whips round his crotch
Hearing only an echo saying, “thank you very much”
The last Elvis sleeps ‘neath the stars
Scans the sky for father from his burnt out car
Sweet David Beckham the facsimile
Curls ‘round his shoulder purring “at last we are free”
Goodbye to Peckham Rye and Hackney Downs
The bridges to my future are burning down
Goodbye to summers passed in Highland Park
The innocence of summer nights is dead at last
The last tradesman in the triangle of gold
Clings to his body with the nails of his soul
The extensions new but the money’s old
The plasterers don’t come, the smoko never ends and the house is never sold
Goodbye to Peckham Rye and Hackney Downs
The bridges to my future are burning down
Goodbye to summers passed in Highland Park
The innocence of summer nights is dead at last
Can't beat a Pond song about Elvis
Flaming yes
Imagine an Elvis song about Pond!?!?!
@@dannybowden5296 Now that would be something
@@DRRNNDGL Wouldn't it just! Might get AI to do it
Oh what a bop !! Pond never fails 💯
Amazing
Vocals reminiscent of T-Rex and early 70's Eno keyboard sounds, definitely checking off those glam rock touchstones
Spot on! Very Bolan vocals
Thx❤

Yarp, what Horey said!
@@dannybowden5296 😂🥂
Got smashed after work today for the first time in a long time; and after a bad time.
Sanded and painted my bollocks off for eight hours in the lesser spotted blazing British summer Sun, cursing crap paint and the wrong type of air; when there was a fresh can, just over there.
I've had so many epiphanies tonight!
Only had a few pints, vodka and gold seal but it's safe to say I'm suitably bopping along to this 'Bee'autiful song, tripping some balls and petting doggo Benny with a bift on.
Cheers very muchly, Pond! Just the ticket!
❤
LYRICS:
The last Elvis in Madison Square
Billboards sparkle off his liquorice hair
Last year's papers blow 'round his flairs
At his cassette's crescendo
He kicks at the air
No one's clapping
So he whips 'round his crotch
Hearing only an echo saying, "Thank you very much"
The last Elvis sleeps 'neath the stars
Scans the sky for father from his burnt out car
Sweet David Beckham
The facsimile
Curls 'round his shoulder purring, "At last we are free"
Goodbye to Peckham Rye and Hackney Downs
The bridges to my future are burning down
Goodbye to summers passed in Highland Park
The innocence of summer nights is dead at last
There is only one more tradesman in the triangle of gold
Clings to his body with the nails of his soul
The extension's new
But the money's old
The plasterers don't come, the smoko never ends, and the house is never sold
Goodbye to Peckham Rye and Hackney Downs
The bridges to my future are burning down
Goodbye to summers passed in Highland Park
The innocence of summer nights is dead at last
Awesome! Thank you!
As a Brit and a Leeds United fan, seeing David Beckham's name in a song was a huge curveball I never saw coming! All sorts was going on in my gulliver! lol
To see "smoko" as well after I've just posted a comment giving me smoko vibes, to be able to visualise where this is with the Cockney geographical signposts and the sense of saying goodbye to something that was great but is not quite the same anymore; well, it rang all my bells, I can tell thee!
'onya!
Sounds alot like Lonerism by Tame Impala, and I love it!
Some of these guys are in tame impala 😂
The best song of the album...
