Elephant Micah
Текст песни Paradise

what's the purpose
of this petting zoo
here in the middle
of palmyra

if we've been banned
from it forever
never to touch a hair
or feather
we stand at the gate
watching the things
for which we wait
will someone come
to pick the lock
and set the peacock free?

what's the meaning
of this castle
there in the middle
of Kentucky
when all the monarchs
have already migrated
some call it
an act of chivalry we negated
still we stand at the gate
to watch the horses
as they race

will someone come and
burn it down to make
the whole town see?
and what would the queen think?
