Cue The Elephants

	The morning belonged to the grapefruit
	Ripe in the gold Rome sun
	I throw out the rind
	It's just bitter to me
	Done, done, done.
	The skyline is made of the umbrella pine
	And I wish we could climb everyone
	But all I could see in the shape of the streets
	Done, done, done.
	Cue the elephants!
	The torches they light in the woods
	Can you and me save the city?
	I thought that we promised we would.
	But you've got your hands in your pockets
	And you can't look me in the eye
	And now for that eternal question:
	Why? Why? Why?
	And then he would look at those starlings
	Together they swoop down as one
	He'd read in that dizzy ellipsis
	Done, done, done.
	We dangle our legs in the fountains
	The pail is red and on
	The aqueduct water is ancient
	Done, done, done.
	Cue the elephants!
	The torches they light in the woods
	Can you and me save the city?
	I thought that we promised we would.
	But you've got your hands in your pockets
	And you can't look me in the eye
	And now for that eternal question:
	Why? Why? Why?

	La luh-laa
	La luh-laa
	La la-la la la laa-uhh.
