It seems to be about eating mushrooms and visiting Graceland. "bullet holes in Vernon's room out back", "Headless cast with jumpsuits". I am off to see FB in Georgia! Wish me safe travels!

Here is the direct quote. You can find the rest of the interview in the review section.

FW: "His Kingly Caves." What's that about?

FB: That is about Graceland. It's about a trip that I took to Graceland many years ago. I thought it would be fun to take hallucinogenic mushrooms while I was there. I was much younger than I am now. It's not something I would really do now. I was young and dumb and I went to Graceland with my girlfriend and we took mushrooms and it was a horrible and tense day. That's a telling of that day in that story.

Can someone please explain to me what these lyrics have to do with Graceland? Leopards, jumpsuit on a headless cast, polished jewels under two inch glass, and bullets holes in Vernon’s room out back don't mean anything to me. Thanks in advance.

Vernon was Elvis's dad, I think Graceland has a 'jungle theme room' with various animal skins, there is a display of Elvis's concert jumpsuits (presumably on headless casts), again his jewelry is on display - there are references to the posse (his mates/bodyguards)

Elvis wore jumpsuits. So I guess there are a few on mannequins or the sort that freaked him out while on shrooms.

Polished jewels and glass. Elvis had mad ICE.

Vernon was Elvis' dad. Elvis liked guns and I guess there were bullet holes in the walls.

douche!

thanx, this song just moved way up the line for me, his thoughts are so abstract I cant help but being overwelmed by his lyrical universe, but this beats all.

It is explained very well in an article posted on this forum. Can't remember quite where on the site...but I will try. Definately about eating mushrooms while touring Graceland with his girlfriend.
