Karaoké The Elephant Song Kamahl

Tell me said the elephant

Tell me brothers if you can

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 jumbo jet

Let the word all may 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 jumbo jet

Let the word all may remember

Let the children not forget

Listen

Please listen said the elephant

If we want the world we know to stay alive 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
