Elephant
I hear the children play
With the guards of the jail
With the guards of the jail
With the guards of the jail
I'm thinking of a new name
That I could give myself
One day I'll be myself
Woh, (one day) I'll be my own
It's been forty long years
(In the desert) in the desert I've been
I've even hit the devil's nose
In the desert I have grown
(And as the woman said)
That day when I was crying out
God puts his diamonds in the sand
But then he always takes them back
Have a good day, brother
Me an' your sister will rise up
Like an elephant from the mud
In your carefree sleep, we will brake free
We will brake free
Have a good day, brother
Me an' your little bro' will rise up
Like an elephant from the storm
In your carefree sleep, we will brake free
We will brake free
And the city will be reborn
And the streets will be washed
May the streets be clean and washed
Woh (may the streets be clean) woh (and washed)
And we will wave our hand
And everybody will forgive the past
And everybody will forgive the past
Wow (And everybody will) wow (forgive the past)
And as the woman said
That day when I was crying out
God puts his diamonds in the sand
But then he always takes them back
Have a good day, brother
Me an' your sister will rise up
Like an elephant from the mud
In your carefree sleep, we will brake free
We will brake free
Have a good day, brother
You an' my little bro' will rise up
Like an elephant from the storm
In your carefree sleep, we will brake free
We will brake free
Have a good day, brother
Me an' your sister will rise up
Like an elephant from the mud
In your carefree sleep we will brake free
We will brake free
Have a good day, brother
You an' my little bro' will rise up
Like an elephant from the storm
In the breakfast tea, we will brake free
We will brake free
(I'm thinking of a new name) oh oh
(That I could give myself) ah ah
(One day I'll be myself) ah ah
(One day I'll be my own) I'll be my own
(I'm thinking of a new name)
(That I could give myself)
(One day I'll be myself)
(One day I'll be my own) I'll be my own
With the guards of the jail
With the guards of the jail
With the guards of the jail
I'm thinking of a new name
That I could give myself
One day I'll be myself
Woh, (one day) I'll be my own
It's been forty long years
(In the desert) in the desert I've been
I've even hit the devil's nose
In the desert I have grown
(And as the woman said)
That day when I was crying out
God puts his diamonds in the sand
But then he always takes them back
Have a good day, brother
Me an' your sister will rise up
Like an elephant from the mud
In your carefree sleep, we will brake free
We will brake free
Have a good day, brother
Me an' your little bro' will rise up
Like an elephant from the storm
In your carefree sleep, we will brake free
We will brake free
And the city will be reborn
And the streets will be washed
May the streets be clean and washed
Woh (may the streets be clean) woh (and washed)
And we will wave our hand
And everybody will forgive the past
And everybody will forgive the past
Wow (And everybody will) wow (forgive the past)

Have a good day, brother
Me an' your sister will rise up
Like an elephant from the mud
In your carefree sleep, we will brake free
We will brake free
Have a good day, brother
You an' my little bro' will rise up
Like an elephant from the storm
In your carefree sleep, we will brake free
We will brake free
Have a good day, brother
Me an' your sister will rise up
Like an elephant from the mud
In your carefree sleep we will brake free
We will brake free
Have a good day, brother
You an' my little bro' will rise up
Like an elephant from the storm
In the breakfast tea, we will brake free
We will brake free
