We Are Elephants

Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls children of all ages you are the greatest show on earth I look around and all I see are people throwing stones We burn the web of spokes that reach from castle to ghetto We are elephants dressed up in the circus We can heed the ringmaster He taught us some tricks There is a darkness inside you It's ruthless, shameless, and it's smooth Convinces you you don't have enough Tells you to stay when you outta run - run We are elephants dressed up in the circus We can heed the ringmaster He taught us some tricks Oh, bind me to you Without another I would never know the steps to dance to my own tune You are the greatest The light in every desperate bum illuminates the bulb in everyone You double down when you lift your thumb to see who picks you up We are elephants dressed up in the circus We can heed the ringmaster He taught us some tricks We can stand on our hind legs We dance in the circus We can cry alone in our cages or we stampede We are elephants dressed up in the circus We can heed the ringmaster He taught us some tricks We can stand on our hind legs We can dance in the circus We could cry alone in our cages or we stampede or we stampede or we stampede or we stampede You are the greatest show on earth
