lyrics

Elephants are walking up and down my spine
I didn't ask for a massage but they still gave me nine
Because an elephant will never learn to toe the line
The benevolence of elephants is blowing my mind
Oh, yeah

Elephants are walking up and down my street
Scaring the dickens out the neighbors and the hell out of me
You know an elephant'll never learn to walk on beat
But its irrelevant the elephant's got nowhere to be

He's just an elephant
With lots of elephant friends
When it comes to violent endings all these elephants have no ends

Elephants are moving into my neighborhood
Maybe a little old diversity could do us some good
I saw one of them playing hop scotch in the street
Its just so elegant the way the elephant moves its feet

He's just an elephant
With lots of elephant friends
When it comes to violent endings all these elephants have no ends
He's just an elephant
With lots of elephant friends
When it comes to violent endings all these elephants have no ends

He's just an elephant
She's just an elephant
They're just an elephant
We're just an elephant

He's just an elephant
With lots of elephant friends
When it comes to violent endings all these elephants have no ends
He's just an elephant
With lots of elephant friends
When it comes to violent endings all these elephants have no
