Elephant Ears

(Album: Loud Fantasy, Quiet Reality - 2021)

Say I don't mind but I'm counting every word
Even when you speak under your breath
A frequency I'm hearing, a snakebite without a name
But I hear you with the elephant ears, and

Oh-oh-oh
Say your thoughts when you think I won't hear
But nothing gets by these elephant ears
Oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Say your thoughts when you think I won't hear
But try to get by these elephant ears

It's all inside my head, every word and subtle joke
Like it's all been tattooed in my mind
Maybe I am just biased, oh I got a lot of pain
I've always had these elephant ears, and

Say what you're whispering, I can't hear
But I always do with the elephant ears, and

Oh-oh-oh
Say your thoughts when you think I won't hear
But nothing gets by these elephant ears
Oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Say your thoughts when you think I won't hear
But try to get by these elephant ears

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Diluted truth
I guess I'm waterproof
Nothing here to lose
The next sound I hear should
Be nothing but the truth
Nothing but the truth
Oh, with my elephant ears

Oh-oh-oh
Say your thoughts when you think I won't hear
But nothing gets by these elephant ears
Oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Say your thoughts when you think I won't hear
But try to get by these elephant ears

Oh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
