Elephant Elephant
Elephant (elephant)
Big and strong and gentle and intelligent (intelligent)
How could I feel blue
I've got my sister at my side
And an elephant to ride
Elephant (elephant)
You're sad and in a cage
But that's irrelevant (irrelevant)
'Cause everyone gets jealous when they see me riding by
On a friend of such great size
Other kids have bikes (That's true)
Or daddies pick them up from school
But that won't do for me, you understand (understand)
Other kids have horses
Other kids have dogs
Other kids have hamsters
Other kids have frogs
But the pet for me is something much more grand
Other kids have bikes (That's true)
Or daddies pick them up from school
But that won't do for me, you understand (understand)
Other kids have horses
Other kids have dogs
Other kids have hamsters
Other kids have frogs!
But the pet for me is something much more grand
And benevolent...
And... elegant...
And I've got an
Elephant, elephant
Riding on your back I'm in my element (element)
It's true and it's a fact that there's so much you can learn
When you're on a pakiderm
Oh, elephant (elephant)
My thoughts so bad swell of it
To give me such a friend
Oh, elephant (elephant)
I'm with you to the end
Elephant, elephant
I'm with you to the end
Goodnight, Elephant
Big and strong and gentle and intelligent (intelligent)
How could I feel blue
I've got my sister at my side
And an elephant to ride
Elephant (elephant)
You're sad and in a cage
But that's irrelevant (irrelevant)
'Cause everyone gets jealous when they see me riding by
On a friend of such great size
Other kids have bikes (That's true)
Or daddies pick them up from school
But that won't do for me, you understand (understand)
Other kids have horses
Other kids have dogs
Other kids have hamsters
Other kids have frogs
But the pet for me is something much more grand
Other kids have bikes (That's true)
Or daddies pick them up from school
But that won't do for me, you understand (understand)
Other kids have horses
Other kids have dogs
Other kids have hamsters
Other kids have frogs!
But the pet for me is something much more grand
And benevolent...
And... elegant...
And I've got an
Elephant, elephant
Riding on your back I'm in my element (element)
It's true and it's a fact that there's so much you can learn
When you're on a pakiderm
Oh, elephant (elephant)
My thoughts so bad swell of it
To give me such a friend
Oh, elephant (elephant)
I'm with you to the end
Elephant, elephant
I'm with you to the end
Goodnight, Elephant
