17 Pink Sugar Elephants (Vashti Bunyan cover)
I saw seventeen pink sugar elephantsSitting under a chestnut treeI said good morning pink sugar elephantsBut they wouldn't speak to meEach had two eyes but they couldn't see me thereEach had four legs but they couldn't go anywhereAnd so we just satThat early autumn morningSun not yet risen and magic everywhereI walked up to one pink sugar elephantAsked why wouldn't he speak to meBut he was a factory-made pink sugar elephantGiven to children for treats after teaHe had two eyes but he couldn't see me thereHe had four legs but he couldn't go anywhereAnd so we just satThat early autumn morningSun not yet risen and magic everywhere From Letras Mania
