Well, he feels like an elephant
Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it
He knows that you're dreaming about being over him
Too bad your chances are slim
And it's not like mister shook to get shy when they ask him who is under
There must be something deep down in the middle down there
He's not too easily scared
He's got friends but they have fear
Who don't care too much if he just disappeared
Oh, look there he is now coming down the stairs
Here it comes
He pulled the mirrors off his Cadillac
'Cause he doesn't like it looking like he looks back
He talks like his opinion is a simple fact
Somebody grabbed his collar
He cried the whole way home
He won't remember a thing 'til they start again
That's how it is 'til the end
Yeah

"Elephant" is a song by Australian musical project Tame Impala, released on 26 July 2012 as the lead single from their second album Lonerism (2012). The single features artwork from Australian artist Leif Podhajsky, who also created the artwork for Innerspeaker and the follow-up Lonerism.
"Elephant" was covered by children's music group the Wiggles for Australian youth broadcaster Triple J's Like a Version segment on 5 March 2021, which won the station's Hottest 100 of 2021.
Kevin Parker explains that:
"Elephant is actually one of the oldest songs that I have, it's just been in the vaults this whole time. I'm not sure why we never recorded it before, but we were just playing it at a sound check one night and everyone in the band was like, 'We should just put this on the album', and so we did."
