Boat - Elephant Ears lyrics

rate me

We all know that you're back in town

Your old boat keeps running aground

The captain's gone and the sails are broken

You've got elephant ears

You're wise beyond beyond your ears

I swear your head gets bigger

everytime I see you

Cause we were paid to lose

Chicago public schools

Teacher I know your game

And I'm playing

We know that I can't say (SAY!)

How I get through the day

But my feet are sore when that bell starts ringing

In a classroom with no locking doors (DOORS!)

In a classroom with unswept floors

I'm the corner and I'm waiting to sweep it

We were paid to lose

Chicago public schools

Teacher I know your game

And I'm playing

Cause we strive to lose

Cause we won't ever win

I'm telling you this

For the third time

Take the green line, green line

Take the red line, all the time

My eyeballs are burnin' them back together

Take the blue line, blue line

Take the purple line, some of the time

My eyeballs are burnin' them back together

Cause we were paid to lose

We won't ever win

I'm telling you this

For the last time
