Hold the applause (why?) We ain't finished yet We need to find a cause (yeah!) Now do it for the animals (yeah!) Now do it for the trees (yeah!) For twenty bucks a month you can donate it all to ME [Chorus] All we need is a cool Elvis stance All we need is an island south of France All we need is a big trust fund All we need is a motherfucking hit song!
