《The Elephant Song》歌词

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

[00:00:04] A elephant's life is tedious laborious and slow

[00:00:09] I've been an elephant all me life

[00:00:11] So I blooming well ought to know

[00:00:17] He never forgets a name or face oh

[00:00:21] He knows his way from place to place oh

[00:00:25] Remembers to be dutiful

[00:00:27] And when to push and when to pull

[00:00:30] An when he's dead the dealer calls

[00:00:32] And buys his tusks for billiard balls ooooh

[00:00:36] And all because an elephant's got a perfect memory

[00:00:41] That wasn't the life for me

[00:00:43] So I'm suffering form amnesia

[00:00:47] My mind's a perfect blank

[00:00:50] Now life is very much easier

[00:00:52] Amnesia's to thank

[00:00:54] I'm being psychoanalysed

[00:00:56] I lie on a divan

[00:00:59] And flap me ears

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

[00:01:03] I'm an Introverted Elephocentric Hypochondriac

[00:01:08] And I'll stick in the Elephant's nursing home

[00:01:11] Till I get me memory back

[00:01:16] I'm suffering from Hysteria

[00:01:18] I nearly split me sides

[00:01:21] To watch the others get wearier

[00:01:23] Of giving children rides

[00:01:25] I've told my psychoanalyst

[00:01:27] That I'm a sacred cow

[00:01:29] I'd love to carry a Howdah

[00:01:31] But I can't remember how

[00:01:35] I'm an Introverted Elephocentric Hypochondriac

[00:01:40] And I'll stick in the Elephant's nursing home

[00:01:42] Till I get me memory back

[00:01:48] I suffer from Schizophrenia

[00:01:50] It comes on me in spells

[00:01:52] Sometimes I'm King of Armenia

[00:01:54] At others I'm Orson Welles

[00:01:56] I tell them I'm Napoleon

[00:01:58] And all that sort of bunk

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

[00:02:05] I'm laughing up me trunk

[00:02:07] I'm an Introverted Elephocentric Hypochondriac

[00:02:12] And I'll stick in the Elephants' nursing home

[00:02:15] Till I get me memory back

[00:02:21] Practising me trumpet half the night

[00:02:29] And I'll stick in the Elephants' nursing home

[00:02:31] Till I get me memory get me memory

[00:02:34] Get me memory back
