Elephant Lyrics

Hey Mr. Elephant there's been an accident down here
You and your trickery played a trick on me down here
Hey, Mr. Elephant it's important that you see
That there is a big reward if you cooperate with me

Hey, Mr. Flower Jar there's a curtain call out here
You made it look so real we could almost feel you here
Hey, Mr. Flower Jar we've all cleared a space for you
You've got a heart of gold and your performance sold the news

[this part is a round]


I will give you all of this

If you will praise me
If you will praise me
Fly into the ground

Like an airplane
Like an airplane
Fly into the ground

You'll be given all of this


If you believe it
If you believe it
Fly into the trees

And pick the best one
Pick the best one
Fly into the ground

(2004 - 2008)

Page France were an indie folk-pop music band. Their music tends to be emotional and their songs tend to have simple melodies. Page France is sometimes compared to Sufjan Stevens for their use of uncommon instruments such as the glockenspiel and banjo.

The band broke up in 2008. Frontman Michael Nau is now focusing his full attention on Cotton Jones.

The band has been characterized by some as Christian due to a number of references in song lyrics and titles. However, lyricist Nau counters: "The 'Christian band' inquiry wears me out, to be honest. As for the Christian symbols in my writing — sometimes I don’t even realize that they exist until someone points them out to me. There’s really no reason; it just rolled out that way."

The band is a frequent feature on a number of music blogs, notably You Ain't No Picasso. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
