Well it smells like desperation
Another mime trapped inside invisble walls
A reptilian serenade to break down the barricades
Propping up dominoes to watch them fall
Yeah, oh yeah, the penitent criminal can do no wrong
Yeah, oh yeah, elephant graveyard, I won't be long
Well I haven't heard any escape plan
The claustrophobia becomes a chore
Animal laughter from mechanical actors
Fortune on his damn quarrel showed like a rebel's whore
And I'm ready...
Yeah, oh yeah, the penitent criminal can do no wrong
Yeah, oh yeah, elephant graveyard I won't be long
Yeah, oh yeah, the clocks ticking somebody's song
Yeah, oh yeah, elephant graveyard, I won't belong
