Elefant [English translation]

Get out the good china

We'll drink a toast to life!

A few thousand kilos

of power and elegance

White lace tablecloth,

Tiny little cups,

Very fragile!

Delicate figurines,

Miniatures,

Valuable,

Ugly!

Dark gray bodies,

Clever and indestructible,

Heavy and mighty

Gigantic trunks!-

Just don't sneeze!-

Don't move now!

Don't move now!

Don't move now!

Look at you, how big you are!

You don't belong in this store!

You don't belong in the zoo or the circus,

You belong in freedom! (freedom)

Look at you, how strong you are!

Why do they hold you captive?

You deserve better than peanuts for tricks!

You're capable of anything, if they'd let you!

Look at you, how beautiful you are!

Why do they stare at you?

Cage you behind bars and panes of glass-

So that they can take a picture of you?

Look at you, how smart you are!

Do they really believe

That you forget, that you patiently endure?

But when you realize your strength,

They can only hope you forget!

Get out the good china

We'll drink a toast to freedom!

A few thousand kilos

of power and elegance,

A dancing elephant!

Where is my elephant herd?

We want to hear you stamping

[4x]

Where is my elephant herd?

We want to see you dancing

Where is my elephant herd?

Strong women and manly men-

Seems like they take us for god-damned dwarves.

We wonder why we're treated that way.

How badly can someone fool themselves?

There are so many unknown strengths inside us!

We're afraid of mice,

And we let this fear master us!

Faced with mountains,

Why should we give up too soon?

They can't make me believe

That Hannibal, alone, would be more than just some fool!

If we want, we'll leave behind scorched earth,

For all these pricey old-maids' shards1

Have lots of fun sweeping it all up

'Cause tonight we're going to dance!

Get out the good china

We'll drink a toast to ourselves!

A few thousand kilos

Of power and elegance.

Tonight: a dancing elephant!
