17 Pink Sugar Elephants |
| I saw seventeen pink sugar elephants |
| Sitting under a chestnut tree |
| I said good morning pink sugar elephants |
| But they wouldn’t speak to me |
| Each had two eyes but they couldn’t see me there |
| Each had four legs but they couldn’t go anywhere |
| And so we just sat |
| That early autumn morning |
| Sun not yet risen and magic everywhere |
| I walked up to one pink sugar elephant |
| Asked why wouldn’t he speak to me |
| But he was a factory-made pink sugar elephant |
| Given to children for treats after tea |
| He had two eyes but he couldn’t see me there |
| He had four legs but he couldn’t go anywhere |
| And so we just sat |
| That early autumn morning |
| Sun not yet risen and magic everywhere |
