The Elephant

[Intro]
(Elephant, elephant, ele-ele-elephant)

[Verse 1]
You're holding on to fear, constantly under attack
So it's holding on to you like a monkey on your back
And you're always on the run like a buffalo pack
Do you see that, see that? (See that)
If you're hiding in the dark, then you're hiding like a rat
Yeah, they're gonna drink your blood, they will bite like a bat
You better look up, baby, better stretch your back
Giraffe, giraffe, giraffe

[Pre-Chorus]
If we don't wake up soon
If we just keep pretendin'
They'll take over the room

[Chorus]
We're all dancing around the zoo
But no one looks at the elephant
We're all hidin' in our cocoons
We're all hidin' our skeletons
The circus in your head
Monsters under your bed
Flashlight on, I promise you
They're not scary if you look at them
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la)

[Verse 2]
Tension in the air, there's no time for being scared
Hey, you gotta be aware that we're wrestling the bear
Gotta save all of your prayers 'cause you're gonna need them all
Later, later, later (Later), later

[Pre-Chorus]
If we don't stand up soon
They will stand on us later
They'll take over the room

[Chorus]
We're all dancing around the zoo
But no one looks at the elephant
We're all hidin' in our cocoons
We're all hidin' our skeletons
The circus in your head
Monsters under your bed
Flashlight on, I promise you
They're not scary if you look at them

[Bridge]
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la) If we don't wake up soon
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la) If we just keep pretendin'
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la) They'll take over the room
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la)
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la) If we don't wake up soon
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la) If we just keep pretendin'
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la) They'll take over the room
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la)

[Chorus]
We're all dancing around the zoo
But no one looks at the elephant
We're all hidin' in our cocoons
We're all hidin' our skeletons
We're all dancing around the zoo
But no one looks at the elephant
We're all hidin' in our cocoons
We're all hidin' our skeletons
The circus in your head
Monsters under your bed
Flashlight on, I promise you
They're not scary if you look at them

[Outro]
(Elephant, elephant, ele-ele-elephant)
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la)
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la)
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la)
(La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la)
