lyrics

White Elephants

Ladies gentlemen! Please welcome!
On the scene of the circus are
White Elephants!
----------------------

They are submissive and truly kind.
Such valorous creatures nowhere you can find.
They’ll show you power and magic grace,
Will amaze your eyes and bring smile to your face.

But behind the scene of mystical show
Is the cage, the knout, the hardship is so…
The only consolation is sugar and hope.
The freedom and happiness are unreachable tops.

This circus is hateful not only for the beasts
But also we can find humans in this list.
They are shackled of own accord.
But who is guilty?
They made that choice.

It’s high time to wake up from hypnotic sleep.
Don’t sleep.
Wake up!

Revolution in mind.
Revolution in heart.
Revolution is the only way to the light.

Run away you mice, Elephants are stepping
On victorious way all enemies they’re breaking
Look at their flag, it is the Peace
Look at their king, like freedom he is.
