Elephants - Them Crooked Vultures

We’re painted as monsters

Borracho, cansado

And do you know what the people say?

I’m plucked from the garden of wretched beliefs

I offer a rose and smile with harmless teeth

Then slick back my hair

You know the devil’s in there

Alone in the garden

Like lumbering giants in a shameful parade

We came to ruin all and make a rotten trade

And make you roll over

So roll over (Get over)

Scattered all on the shore

Surely they’re washed away

Feeling somewhat deserving

Of what will be someday

No, I can never stay melancholy

I’ve the memory of your face

No, I can never stay melancholy for long

Before I move on

We’re unwanted strangers

Exploited and dangerous

Unable to hide or even dream of it

Como estas?

Parting the seas

We’re lepers who stroll

Why you afraid sweety?

I slick back my hair

You know the devil’s in there

So keep one eye open baby

We’re so easy to spot

Lepers riding atop

Pachyderms made of germs

Elephants broken and screaming and all (Roll over)

Are we coming over?

Scattered all on the shore

Surely they’re washed away

Scattered all on the shore

Surely they’re washed away

Away, away

Feeling somewhat deserving

Of what will be someday

No, I can never stay melancholy

I’ve the memory of your face

I’m alone in the garden

Of long lost hopeful plans

No I can never stay anything for long

So come on, move

Roll over

Are we coming over?

Here we go
