Someday--SOME DAY--I'm gonna do that song at karaoke, using helium to hit the high notes. Tell me that wouldn't bring down the house.

Turn up the "reverb", sing the first verse in your lowest Elvis voice...then, as the music ramps up for those high notes, you've got plenty of time to take a big toke of helium and belt out:

I AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM
AN INNOCENT MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

OH YES I AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM

The crowd goes bonkers, and you're back to Elvis for Verse Two.

(WARNING: If you try this, make sure you have a spotter behind you. Big hits of helium, followed by singing long notes, are a long time to go without oxygen. You won't feel short of breath, because your lungs keep getting filled, but at any second, your lights could suddenly go out, and down you go. Trust me on that one.)
