EFFERVESCING ELEPHANT -- Syd Barrett
G G7
An effervescing elephant with tiny eyes and great big trunk
C C7
once whispered to the tiny ear, the ear of one in fear, you hear
G
that by next June he'd die, Oh yeah!
D
And the tiger would roam, the little one said,
D7
"Oh my goodness -- I must stay at home!
G G7
And every time I hear a growl, I'll know the tiger's on the prowl,
C C7
And I'll be really safe, you know, the elephant, he told me so."
G
Everyone was nervous, Oh yeah!
D D7
And the message was spread to zebra, mongoose and the dirty hippopotamus
G G7
who wallowed in the mud and chewed his spicy hippo-plankton food
C
and tended to ignore the word,
C7 G
referring to a survey I heard of stupid water bison
D
Oh yeah! And all the jungle took fright,
D7
and ran around for all the day and the night,
G
But all in vain because, you see, the tiger came and said,
G7 C
"Who me? You know I wouldn't hurt not one of you --
C G
I much prefer something to chew, and you're all too scant."
C D G
Oh yeah! He ate the elephant.

who are dragging you into court?" -- James 2:6 [NIV]
