OPC - Elephants

Insight from MoNH, and Bronx zoo. A steel string, nylon string, synthesizer and some percussion celebrating one of the most magnificent animals on earth. Band called Other Peoples Children. Elephants; they eat plants. It makes no sense why we can't advance. Beyond the greed that dooms them, we should leave some room for the elephants. Waterhole's a must. When the water's all gone; dig with those tusks. Bring the water on. Lots of creatures of the land depending on the elephant. Elephants in a family. Tusks are for defense, not for mans' vanity. Every piece of ivory that you buy pulls their teeth, makes em die! Elephants, walk on tipytoe Gentle and magnificent, mighty when they bellow. Silently they go their way listening for friends far away. Face of joviality, cheeks you wannna hug. Each such personality, stifled without love. Here's a creature who's mighty glad for a place like earth to stomp its pad.
