An effervescing elephant with tiny eyes and great big trunk
C C7once whispered to the tiny ear, the ear of one in fear, you hear
Gthat by next June he'd die, Oh yeah!
And the tiger would roam, the little one said,
D7"Oh my goodness -- I must stay at home!
G G7And every time I hear a growl, I'll know the tiger's on the prowl,
And I'll be really safe, you know, the elephant, he told me so."
GEveryone was nervous, Oh yeah!
D D7And the message was spread to zebra, mongoose and the dirty hippopotamus
who wallowed in the mud and chewed his spicy hippo-plankton food
Cand tended to ignore the word,
C7 Greferring to a survey I heard of stupid water bison
Oh yeah! And all the jungle took fright,
D7and ran around for all the day and the night,
GBut all in vain because, you see, the tiger came and said,
"Who me? You know I wouldn't hurt not one of you --
C GI much prefer something to chew, and you're all too scant."
C D GOh yeah! He ate the elephant.
"Is it not the rich who are exploiting you? Are they not the ones
who are dragging you into court?"
