Lyrics

Elephant In the Room

Can't say I feel too comfortable
When asked to smile for your friends
I spent almost an hour or two
Waiting in the freezing cold for you

Where are all your please and thanks
When you finally arrive?
And then you forget to introduce
I end up st- st- stumbling through

I'm plodding 'long
Pretending that
Nothing's wrong

Sooner or later
I'll stop playing favourites
You're giving signals and it seems so simple
But what can you do
While an elephant sits in the room?
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do
While an elephant sits in the room?

Can be your crying shoulder
When you're lost and alone
But it's not just me and you
Watching from your ivory tower view

Not sure I can go on like this
When I'm dragged down by the ear
Now you've turned on love and that's bizarre
But at least I know who my real friends are

I'm plodding 'long
Pretending that
Nothing's wrong

Sooner or later
I'll stop playing favourites
You're giving signals and it seems so simple
But what can you do
While an elephant sits in the room?
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do
While an elephant sits in the room?

I can't move out, stuck in this house
Never forget, I gave my best, never forget (never forget)
I can't move out, stuck in this house
Never forget, I gave my best
Sooner or later
I'll stop playing favourites

Sooner or later
I'll stop playing favourites
You're giving signals and it seems so simple
But what can you do
While an elephant sits in the room?
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do
While an elephant sits in the room?

What can you do? Send her along
You twist the truth? Send her along
I'll be lonely
But I'll be alright

What can you do? Send her along
You twist the truth? Send her along
I'll be lonely
But I'll be alright
What can you do?
