Queen Elvis is the eighth album by Robyn Hitchcock, released on A&M Records in 1989. It is his fifth album to be released with The Egyptians.

Having signed to A&M in 1988, this second set for the label was unreleased in Hitchcock's home country the UK. The album's cover depicts Hitchcock in a red telephone box, illuminated from the inside. Tracks 11 and 12 below are remixes of 2 album tracks ("Veins of the Queen" and "Freeze"), and were included on the original A&M U.S. CD release.

The track "Queen Elvis" appears on his next album, Eye, with a second version "Queen Elvis II" available as a bonus track.
