Effervescing Elephant

from Binjoum [PRT005] by Thiaz Itch

/

lyrics

An effervescing elephant
With tiny eyes, and great big trunk
Once whispered to the tiny ears
The ears of one inferior
That by next june he'd die, oh yeah !
Because the tiger would roam
And the little one said oh my goodness I must stay at home

And everytime I hear a growl
Ill know the tigers on the prowl
And Ill be really safe you know
The elephant he told me so
And everyone was nervy, oh yeah!
And the message was spread
To zebra, mongoose, and the dirty hippopotamus

Who wollowed in the mud and chewed
His spicy hippoplancton food
And tended to ignore the word
Prefering to survey a herd
Of stupid water bison, oh yeah!
And the jungle took fright
And ran around for all the day and the night

But all in vain because you see
The tiger came and said to me,
You know I wouldnt hurt not one of you
I much prefer something to chew
Youre all too scant, oh yeah!
He ate the elephant...
