《The Elephant Song》歌词

[00:00:00] The Elephant Song - Ian Wallace

[00:00:06] A elephant's life is tedious laborious and slow

[00:00:12] I've been an elephant all me life

[00:00:14] So I blooming well ought to know

[00:00:20] He never forgets a name or face oh

[00:00:24] He knows his way from place to place oh

[00:00:29] Remembers to be dutiful

[00:00:31] And when to push and when to pull

[00:00:34] An when he's dead the dealer calls

[00:00:36] And buys his tusks for billiard balls ooooh

[00:00:41] And all because an elephant's got a perfect memory

[00:00:47] That wasn't the life for me

[00:00:49] So I'm suffering form amnesia

[00:00:54] My mind's a perfect blank

[00:00:56] Now life is very much easier

[00:00:59] Amnesia's to thank

[00:01:01] I'm being psychoanalysed

[00:01:03] I lie on a divan

[00:01:06] And flap me ears

[00:01:07] And try to look a barmy as I can

[00:01:11] I'm an Introverted Elephocentric Hypochondriac

[00:01:16] And I'll stick in the Elephant's nursing home

[00:01:19] Till I get me memory back

[00:01:25] I'm suffering from Hysteria

[00:01:27] I nearly split me sides

[00:01:29] To watch the others get wearier

[00:01:32] Of giving children rides

[00:01:34] I've told my psychoanalyst

[00:01:36] That I'm a sacred cow

[00:01:38] I'd love to carry a Howdah

[00:01:40] But I can't remember how

[00:01:44] I'm an Introverted Elephocentric Hypochondriac

[00:01:50] And I'll stick in the Elephant's nursing home

[00:01:52] Till I get me memory back

[00:01:58] I suffer from Schizophrenia

[00:02:00] It comes on me in spells

[00:02:02] Sometimes I'm King of Armenia

[00:02:04] At others I'm Orson Welles

[00:02:07] I tell them I'm Napoleon

[00:02:09] And all that sort of bunk

[00:02:11] They never guess that all the time

[00:02:15] I'm laughing up me trunk

[00:02:18] I'm an Introverted Elephocentric Hypochondriac

[00:02:23] And I'll stick in the Elephants' nursing home

[00:02:26] Till I get me memory back

[00:02:28] Tra tiddle tumty tumty tra tiddletum

[00:02:33] Practising me trumpet half the night

[00:02:37] Tra tiddle tumty tumty tra tiddletum

[00:02:41] And I'll stick in the Elephants' nursing home

[00:02:44] Till I get me memory get me memory

[00:02:46] Get me memory back
