The Lyrics
You know the stars shine the most bright
Only when they die
Fake their deaths
Many tried
It's not true Jimi Hendrix died!
It's not true, journalists have lied!
Shame on you, everyone who cried, yea!
They want their pension here
News attention there
And so they made the plan
That they should hide
It's not true Janis Joplin died!
Somewhere new has she gone to hide!
Everybody buys their albums
Everybody buys their albums
They play
They play
They play
They play deaaaaad
They bought an island in a far
Country Honduras
Took new names and
Hair they dyed
It's not true Jim Morrison died!
In Peru he will now reside!
Its not true...
Never seen,
Kept mistique,
Went away,
In full power,
their fame is great
And worldwide
Its not true that John Lennon died!
Elvis too, it has been implied!
Timbuktu...
or Peru...
or Baku...
We'll pursue...

Good job Ogi. Yes, they all wanted to get away from all the drugs and sex so they had to go to South America where those things don't exist (,'-p)
Elvis is alive and living in Israel. He lives on a kibbutz and is the cantor in their synagogue.
