Elephants

They're not the largest mammals But they're biggest on the land So when I say "please step away" I know you'll understand

They've got two tusks up front for fighting Or digging in the dirt So you can see how easily You'd end up getting hurt

Get out of the way Get out of the way The elephants are coming through your town today

Get out of the way Get out of the way The elephants are coming through your town today The elephants are coming through your town today

They're great communicators With waves called infra-sound Seismically clear, you'd barely hear Them travel through the ground

And while the cows all stick together And congregate at home The bulls go out and walk about They'd rather be alone

Get out of the way Get out of the way The elephants are coming through your town today

Get out of the way Get out of the way The elephants are coming through your town today Elephants are coming through your town today Elephants are coming through your town today

Did you hear about the farmer, who had a house built in Sri Lanka? Well, it was right in the middle of an elephant migration path. And boy, those elephants didn't care for it one bit. In fact, they got tired of walking around it, and one day, and one day, they walked right through it.

Get out of the way Get out of the way The elephants are coming through your house today

Get out of the way Get out of the way The elephants are coming through your house today Elephants are coming through your house today Elephants are coming through your house today
