My start sheds tears somewhat expressly
My end was sung by Elvis Presley
My middle is a fabled bird of prey
I'm nonsense, or I'm made of clay
Who or what am I?

$\begingroup$ Maybe "My start is made of Chromium" instead, for future reference? The elemental symbol for Chromium is Cr :) $\endgroup$– Doktor JApr 11, 2018 at 16:29

$\begingroup$ @DoktorJ sure, that would work too. Personally, I much prefer clueing with dictionary words instead of arbitrary letter combinations, whenever there’s a choice between the two. $\endgroup$– BassApr 11, 2018 at 16:49

My start sheds tears somewhat expressly
Still on it... perhaps it is Cry (shed tears) without the Y (why as an expression?)
Or as M Oehm suggested: Croc(odile tears)!
My end was sung by Elvis Presley
Rock (music genre)
My middle is a fabled bird of prey
Roc (giant mythological bird)
I'm nonsense, or I'm made of clay
Crock ( An earthenware vessel. or another word for 'foolish talk')
