in the works? white elephant şarkı sözleri
When I walked into the room I was stopped dead in my tracks
Because the man who worked so hard was sitting on the peasants' backs
I wanted to run I wanted to leave
But the man turned over looking right into me
He said "come here son it won't take long
Just think real hard and play me a pretty song
Open up those slits and with your eyes you may see
That If you work real hard you can be just like me"
It was 12:35 when in the corner of my eye I saw you
But it was just a shadow to my surprise
As the stagnant must brought the sounds for me to eat
I grew cold as I heard the man approach me
When the promise of a white elephant was thrown upon me
It'd be white and grand a spectacle to be seen
It would bring fortune to the many and that includes you
And it will really only hurt an unlucky few
White elephant
So as I walked outside I was dragging both my feet
And the shadows where the light should be were moving to the beat
Every other sound I'd hear made my knees crumble to my socks
And in the window where the wall should be they knocked
When the promise of a white elephant was thrown upon me
It would be white and grand a spectacle to be seen
It would bring fortune to the many and that includes you
And it will really only hurt an unlucky few
White elephant
