Damien Rice - ElephantLyrics

Well. this has got to die I said, this has got to stop This has got to lie down With someone else on top You can keep me pinned 'Cause it's easier to tease But you can't paint an elephant Quite as good as she And she may cry like a baby And she may drive me crazy 'Cause I am lately Lonely So why'd you have to lie? I take it I'm your crutch The pillow in your pillow case Is easier to touch When you think you've sinned Do you fall upon your knees? Or just sit within your picture You still forget the breeze And she may rise If I sing you down And she may wisely Cling to the ground 'Cause I am lately Horny So why would she take me horny? What's the point of this song? Or even singing? You've already gone Why am I clinging? Well I could throw it out And I could live without And I could do it all for you I could be strong Tell me, do you want me to lie? Because this has got to die 'Cause this has got to stop This has got to lie down, down With someone else on top You can both keep me pinned 'Cause it's easier to tease But you can't make me happy Quite as good as me... (you know that's a lie)
