Elephant song Letra

Why all the world is full of creatures

Yet we grow in fear of man"



Tell me, said the elephant

"Tell me why this has to be

We have to run from man and hunter

Never safe and never free"



People kill without regret

Although they fly by Jumbojet

Let the word of man remember

Let the children not forget



Gentle is the elephant

Pulling loads and everything

We love to hear the children laughing

When we're in the circus-ring



Happy was the elephant

Happy was his jungle life

And then they came, the cruel hunters

With their rifle and their knives



People kill without regret

Although they fly by Jumbojet

Let the word of man remember

Let the children not forget



Listen, please, listen, said the elephant

"If we want the world we know, to stay alife

Then man and beast, we must work together

And together we will survive"



Listen, said the elephant

"It is conservation time

So take the warning when we trumpet

For the future of mankind"
