Quirky lyrics, a catchy melody and a creative music video. Sounds like music to your ears? Check out Beirut‘s Elephant Gun:
Elephant Gun
Lyrics
If I was young, I’d flee this town
I’d bury my dreams underground
As did I, we drink to die
We drink tonightFar from home, elephant guns
Let’s take them down one by one
We’ll lay it down, it’s not been found
It’s not aroundLet the seasons begin
It rolls right on
Let the seasons begin
Take the big king downLet the seasons begin
It rolls right on
Let the seasons begin
Take the big king downAnd it rips through the silence
Of our camp at night
And it rips through the nightAnd it rips through the silence
Of our camp at night
And it rips through the silence
All that is left is all that I hide
