Elephant song Lyrics

There's a fire in the backyard
It casts shadows beyond the canapé
And you call it a murmur
But there's a million people in the street
The secretary's deserted but they printed a final sheet, it says
Get your head out your ass

I can't believe that it's in your face, yeah it's right between your eyes

There's an elephant in your bed
What else could make it squeak like that?
It's the trembling sound of tin cans
It's the brightest color it's redder than red
It's like going out naked then asking
Why do people stare?
I don't know, is it something you wear?

I can't believe that it's in your face, yeah it's right between your eyes
And it's all there is, it's really everything, but it's just not realized

Is it something in your past, that makes you slumber, it makes you slumber
Something better left unsaid, but don't you wonder, how you wonder
'bout the things that you don't get, something smelly in the morning
And you're sure you washed, you're sure you brushed, and you cleaned your room at that.

There's a fire in the backyard
It casts shadows beyond the canapé
And you still call it a murmur
But there's a million people dancing in the street
You're alone in your gobo
Can't you see my little note through the glass?
Get your head out your ass

I can't believe that it's in your face, yeah it's right between you're eyes
And it's all there is, it's really everything but it's just not realized.
And I can't help but realize
