The question is raised every now and then:
Who is better than Elvis Costello?

Now the question can be answered:
(At fighting the British Empire in India)
Mahatma Gandhi
(At dancing the frug in black and white)
Patty Duke
(At winning the Nobel Literature Prize)
Bob Dylan
(At winning the Welterweight Championship)
Sugar Ray Leonard
(At starting a crackpot religion)
L. Ron Hubbard
(At starting a bigger crackpot religion)
Jesus H. Christ
(At collaborating with Elvis Costello)
Paul McCartney.

See?
Elvis Costello is great in many ways,
but in many other ways
he can be bettered.

Let that be a lesson to him
and his admirers.
