Andrew Bird - Sic Of Elephants Live Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You were right
Now we've got good reason to worry
Money made your eyesight all blurry
Now we’re making this a pacifist recalcitrant poses
Can’t you see how dangerous the one you chose is

[Chorus]
Can’t you see how dangerous?
You’re too content to make a fuss
Can’t you see how dangerous
You’re too dangerous

And it brings us back to might makes right

[Verse 2]
So we learn from wars of the roses
The pain is only fear leaving your toeses
So you’re making haste to spite your face to cut off your noses
You convince yourself and others these fists smell like roses

[Chorus]
Can’t you see how dangerous?
When you’re too content to make a fuss
Can’t you see how dangerous?
Do you see how dangerous?
[Bridge]
Squint your eyes and see elephants, sycophants, elephants
Squint your eyes and see elephants, sycophants, elephants
Squint your eyes and see red-faced rants, pleated pants, and sycophants
Squint your eyes and see
Squint your eyes and see

Oh, can’t you see how dangerous?
And it might come down to fight or flight

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Can’t you see how dangerous?
You’re too content to make the fuss
Can’t you see how dangerous?
Can’t you see how dangerous?

[Outro]
Squint your eyes and see elephants, sycophants, elephants
Squint your eyes and see elephants, sycophants, elephants
Squint your eyes and see red-faced rants, pleated pants
Sycophants, elephants
Squint your eyes and see
Squint your eyes and see
Can’t you see how dangerous?
And it brings us back might makes right
