I'm Waking Up to This: "Elephant" Page France

Consider this an experiment that may turn into a regular posting. In this experiment, I'll post the first song that comes on iTunes each morning, then I'll write a little something with it. Let's see how this goes.

The drums and tambourine are marching down the street, the elephant ambles slowly down the center of the two yellow lines. No passing, even if you could. The psychedelics are taking hold and it's difficult to tell what is real and what isn't. The free-association of words stumble out of a mouth in the crowd. Squelching guitars and glockenspiels come from nowhere and everywhere and then, in the center of it all, a rainbow, beautiful and huge, bursts into the sky. It's like a commercial, but instead it's harmony and it's real this time. Singing in the round always sounds like a rainbow, and with clapping, the raindrops drip drip clap clap on to the roof. A trumpet and it's all done.
