"Elephant" lyrics

"Elephant"

Last time I was drunk in Minneapolis
I swore I wouldn't end up here again
Essentially, the drunkenness just happens
In minutes from the moment that you land

'Cause you gotta act like
It doesn't spin you out
That no one's saying
What they're thinking 'bout

Of course, I brought an elephant
To the most delicate place
You cannot make everyone happy
But you can force a smile on their face
Just place your fingers
On each side of their mouths
And pull towards Heaven
Until their teeth peak out
I reset my tolerance
Now it's easier to fail the audience
If you call on me, I will pray for a fire drill

If you call on me, I will pray for a fire drill
And pull towards Heaven
Until their teeth peak out
