Elephants

[Verse 1: John Gourley]
Conductor stood up and took role call
He sent love and happiness into the next car
"Are you in today?"
The bags are in and we plan no stops
Just fearing sleeping in the box
“Are you in today?”

[Chorus: John Gourley]
Who built the love?
Who built the love?
Who built the love, love, love?
Who built the love, love, love?
Built the love, love, love?
Built the love, love, love?

[Verse 2: John Gourley]
Mayor stood up in high demand
He spoke in trash cars and garbage rails
“Are you in today?”
Found the feet, won’t lift the feed
Stripped to the shoes just before the beds
Are empty as the throats and banks
That rise free of the cries and crimes that say
"Are you in today?"

[Chorus: John Gourley]
"Will there be a better place?"
Who built the love?
Who built the love?
Who built the love, love, love?
Who built the love, love, love?
Built the love, love, love?
Built the love, love, love?

[Verse 3: John Gourley]
Teacher stood up and took roll call
Sent the boots, the coats, the caps, the colors
"Are you in today?"
Slip into the water
Slip into them jewelry cuts
Slip into the mind
The coats, the caps, the colors
(And the banks that jail the problems that go)
"Are you in today?"

[Chorus: John Gourley]
"Will there be a better place?"
Who built the love?
Who built the love?
Who built the love, love, love?
Who built the love, love, love?
Built the love, love, love?
Built the love, love, love?

[Bridge: Choir]
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven!
I, I found gold, gold, got it, got it?
I, I found gold, gold, got it, got it?
I, I found gold, gold, got it, got it?
I, I found gold, gold, got it, got it?
I, I found gold, gold, got it, got it?
I, I found gold, gold, got it, got it?

[Verse 4: Nic Newsham]
Pears and peaches and Doctor Hippo
Met for a drink in those marshmallow clouds
Shout at pavement that’s sprouting up turnips
And shouting right back
“We don’t need your lectures
We'll all live on
Live on, on, on
Live on, on, on
Live on"
