I've watched the stars fall silent from your eyes
Oh the sights that I have seen (riff A)
I can't believe that I believed
I wish that you could see (riff A)

there is nothing up my sleeve (riff A)
CHORUS
C C/B Am7
I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
Iґm tossing up punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
G(strum)
crashing to the grouououond
And all this talk of time
Talk is fine
And I donґt want to stay around
Why canґt we pantomime, just close our eyes
And sleep sweet dreams
Being here with wings on our feet
Iґm pushing an elephant up the stairs
Iґm tossing up punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground
Iґm breaking through
Iґm bending spoons
Iґm keeping flowers in full bloom
Iґm looking for answers from the great beyond
I want the hummingbirds, the dancing bears
Sweetest dreams of you
Look into the stars
Look into the moon
Iґm pushing an elephant up the stairs
Iґm tossing up punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground
Iґm breaking through
Iґm bending spoons
Iґm keeping flowers in full bloom
Iґm looking for answers from the great beyond
