Elephant Joke Songtext
von ilyAIMY

This one-sided blind side wasn′t the right side for me
Just cause I've done something for you
Doesn′t mean you've got anything for me
And falling through the cracks with no safety net at all
Makes the cheap seats even cheaper and a surer sharper fall

What did any of it mean?
Who's gonna save me?
I think we′ve overlooked something in this room

This over-arching roof is guaranteed
You′ll have nothing left but no fear of anything
Never cold and never hungry just stay huddled close to me
I'm the sum of every little thing you need
You poor and huddled masses yearning to be me
You have nothing left to fear but fear itself and me

What did any of it mean?
Who′s gonna save me now?
I think we've overlooked something in this room


Fool me once and blame the student
Fool me twice and blame the teacher
Fool me thrice and blame the master
Or maybe start looking back
Maybe start looking back
Maybe start looking back
Maybe start looking back

I′ve heard it causes cancer
I've read it cures the same
It′s been known to shift its stance
And ask askance if you know you thought
Everything else here had changed
It's been known to toe the line and place its weight upon the scales
It's been known to slowly shift around
It′s been known to tell a joke and pull the strings and call the shots
And everybody knows it really gets around

What did any of this mean?
Who′s gonna save me now?
I think we've overlooked something in this room
I think we′ve missed something in this room


Fool me once and blame the student
Fool me twice and blame the teacher
Fool me thrice and blame the master
Or maybe stop looking back
Maybe stop looking back
Maybe stop looking back
Maybe stop looking back
