When I was young
I couldn't keep a promise
Like father, like son
I couldn't keep a promise
Something must be done
Before it comes upon us
Flicker to the sun
I couldn't keep a promise
Keep your head under my coat
I know you can't swim
But the water's low
And the banging won't stop
'Til you knock down my door
And I won't, won't
Hold on

When I was young
I could remember nothing
The elephant song
He finally came to something
If this just drives your patience
Then get on top of time
'Cause everything you wish for comes with patience
Elephants, and time
Keep your head under my coat
I know you can't swim
But the water's low
And the banging won't stop
'Til you knock down my door
And I won't, won't
Hold on
