The Elephant's Repose |
LyricsThe Elephant's Repose© 2014 Johnny Starburst Tears upon a blue stained face The clown's victory parade Passengers with no escape Sins too often made Mothers blessed with joy of life Children cheering wild Its seems the sudden avalanche Made calls we've never dialed? (chorus) A party's not a party till the elephant is tamed True ignorance is slaughtered and prejudice is slain The last thing I remember as the gates of hell were closed Was the sound of hatred dying at the Elephant's Repose No doubt we saw a sudden change The movement had begun And yet we saw no blood at all The war not fought was won (chorus) A party's not a party till the elephant is tamed True ignorance is slaughtered and prejudice is slain The last thing I remember as the gates of hell were closed Was the sound of hatred dying at the Elephant's Repose (bridge) The word itself was spoken though it never reached an ear The dance of true enlightenment by the blue stained balladeer (chorus) A party's not a party till the elephant is tamed True ignorance is slaughtered and prejudice is slain The last thing I remember as the gates of hell were closed Was the sound of hatred dying at the Elephant's Repose |
