Elephant Parade |
Take the gist of it and twist it |
'Til it makes you smile |
And don’t be scared if there’s a snare |
Sometimes it takes a while |
There’s much to learn from every turn inside a labyrinth |
Don’t you try to think about it |
No way to talk about it |
And I will ever change and never cease to be amazed |
Air bubbles up and overflows and then it goes away |
I want to hold and nurture every second of this life that has been given to me |
Even though limitedly |
Jackrabbit, snake pit runnin' oh |
My my, been a long time comin' home |
Jackrabbit dying deep down in his soul |
Dag-nabbit, you hate me, but hey now |
Hip-hip hooray with your baritones on your hip |
Hip hooray for the elephants on parade |
You’re preaching to the chorus |
Line alright for this whole time |
And I’m fine if I can |
Tell a lie about the minor crimes |
I won’t try to justify the reason why |
I think that I’ll never die is so preposterous |
It’s like a bag of circus peanuts in a sewage drain |
Or airin' out your dirty laundry on a weather vane |
Hip-hip hooray for the elephants on parade |
They’re gonna trample themselves |
They’re gonna trample themselves |
Jackrabbit, snake pit runnin' oh |
My my, been a long time comin' home |
Jackrabbit dying deep down in his soul |
Dag-nabbit, you hate me, but hey now |
Hip-hip hooray with your baritones on your hip |
Hip hooray for the elephants on parade |
I got the feeling that I wanna be alone with you |
And I got the feeling that you |
Might want to be alone with me too |
Take a finger and snap, just like that |
And I had to say hey baby let’s go |
And make it home for our show |
Simple defragmentation gets us to the point at last |
But no relaxing 'til they give us all our memory back |
Touché but they had the wherewithal to take it all out of order anyway |
They can always make you pay up |
And I will ever change and never cease to be amazed |
Air bubbles up and overflows and then it goes away |
I want to hold and nurture every second of this life that has been given to me |
Even though limitedly |
Like a bag of circus peanuts in a sewage drain |
Or airin' out your dirty laundry on a weather vane |
Hip-hip hooray for the elephants on parade |
Hip hooray for the elephants on parade |
Take the gist of it and twist it 'til it makes you smile |
And don’t be scared if there’s a snare, sometimes it takes a while |
There’s much to learn from every turn inside a labyrinth |
Don’t you try to think about it |
Ain’t no way to talk about it |
I will ever change and never cease to be amazed |
Air bubbles up and overflows and then it goes away |
I want to hold and nurture every second of this life that has been given to me |
Even though limitedly |
Jackrabbits, snake pit runnin' oh |
My my been a long time coming |
Jackrabbits, snake pit running |
Hip-hip Hooray for the elephants on parade |
