The Last Elephant

And everything is gonna get better for us all
Scarred was the earth at the date of my birth
And it’s only got worse til the time of my curtain call
I know you think that we can’t dream
But when asleep I see the wood for the trees
When will we be anything more than another foot note in history?
I know you think you’re better than lions and tigers, sharks and elephants
It’s true, we only represent an animal analogy, so don’t be mad at me
Carry only what you can
Pile it high and watch it all burn
When will you people ever learn?
Carry only what you can
Pile it high and watch it all burn
When will you ever learn?
Death and taxes are all that is certain
If you think that this is gonna get better you’re a fool
Don’t go making any plans for the long term
You’re gonna get exactly just what you deserve
And when you look at me, what do you see?
Can’t escape your destiny
You and me
When will we be anything more than another sick joke in history?
Carry only what you can
Pile it high and watch it all burn
When will you people ever learn?
Carry only what you can
Pile it high and watch it all burn
Will you ever learn?
Carry only what you can
Pile it high and watch it all burn
When will you people ever learn?
Work hard, play hard, see you in the graveyard
Work hard, play hard, see you in the graveyard
Work hard, play hard, see you in the graveyard
Work hard, play hard, see you in the graveyard
