About the song
Have you ever felt like there’s just too much talk and not enough action? That’s exactly the sentiment that the King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley, captured in his hit song, “A Little Less Conversation.” Released in 2002, this track is actually a remix of a previously recorded version, but thanks to its infectious beat and clever lyrics, it quickly became a global sensation.
If you’re a fan of Elvis’s classic sound, you might be surprised by this more modern take. Produced by Junkie XL, the remix gives the original song a fresh, energetic feel that’s perfect for dancing. But don’t worry, Elvis’s signature vocals are still there, providing a nostalgic touch that will transport you back to the golden age of rock and roll.
The lyrics of “A Little Less Conversation” are simple yet effective. Elvis sings about wanting a little less talking and a little more doing. It’s a message that resonates with people of all ages, as we all know the frustration of dealing with someone who talks a big game but never follows through.
One of the reasons why this song has endured for so long is its versatility. It’s been featured in countless movies, TV shows, and commercials, and it’s even been used as a workout anthem. But perhaps the most famous use of “A Little Less Conversation” was in the 2001 animated film, “Shrek.” The remix was used as the theme song for the film’s trailer, and it helped to introduce a whole new generation of fans to Elvis’s music.
So, the next time you’re feeling a little overwhelmed by all the noise in the world, put on “A Little Less Conversation” and let Elvis’s infectious energy lift your spirits. It’s a timeless classic that will never go out of style.

Lyrics
A little less conversation, a little more action, please
All this aggravation ain’t satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and, baby, satisfy me
Satisfy me, baby
Baby, close your eyes and listen to the music
Drifting through a summer breeze
It’s a groovy night and I can show you how to use it
Come along with me and put your mind at ease
A little less conversation, a little more action, please
All this aggravation ain’t satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and, baby, satisfy me
(Satisfy me) Satisfy me baby (satisfy me)
Come on, baby, I’m tired of talking
Grab your coat and let’s start walking
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Don’t procrastinate, don’t articulate
Girl, it’s getting late, gettin’ upset waitin’ around
A little less conversation, a little more action, please
All this aggravation ain’t satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and, baby, satisfy me
(Satisfy me) Satisfy me baby (satisfy me)
Come on, baby, I’m tired of talking
Grab your coat and let’s start walking
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Don’t procrastinate, don’t articulate
Girl, it’s getting late, gettin’ upset waitin’ around
A little less conversation, a little more action, please
All this aggravation ain’t satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and, baby, satisfy me
(Satisfy me) Satisfy me (satisfy me)
