Lyrics Elephant's Foot - Maceo Parker

Elephant's Foot

Wow!
killing the day not knowing what to do
I’m gonna get my friend and go to the zoo
We didn’t see an elephant or cage
Someone had put them all on the stage
There were lones and bones and all kinds of grhymes
You know those elephants wouldn’t stay in line
I said: I know just what they need
Let’s teach them all to do the Waymen reed
We practised and practised all day long
To teach these elephants the elephants song
They looked at us with tied lips
Just kep’on moving those big elephant hips
And elephant dancing is a thing to see
And that’s when I noticed they were looking at me
I said: come on, elephants, come on, let’s go
And that’s when one of them stepped on my toe
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Elephants stepped on my foot
Elephants stepped on my foot
Elephants stepped on my foot
Elephants stepped on my foot
You must give elephants a dirty look
I like to teach but I have my limits
Elephant dancing is a pretty good gimick
I looked at my wife, it was getting late
It was about time to open the gate
People came in to see the show
Someone said: Hey, look, there’s Maceo!
I said: Can I have your attention please
These elephants are about to dance you down to your knees
They walked, they grained and swayed all day
Startet thinking about after the show hey
I said: come on, it’s not time to eat
We got to get the crowd up off their feet
We got to keep going for a while yet
Gonna hip them all a out of dead
I said: anyway after this there’s another show
And again, same elephant same toe
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Elephants stepped on my foot
Elephants stepped on my foot
Elephants stepped on my foot
Elephants stepped on my foot
You must get worried for a dirty look
I know what I’ll do:
I’ll feet them some of this:
Elephants stepped on my foot
Elephants stepped on it.
