When I See an Elephant Fly

I've seen a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
I've seen a needle that winked its eye.
But I think I will have seen about everything
When I see an elephant fly.

I saw a front porch swing, heard a diamond ring,
I've seen a polka-dot railroad tie.
But I think I will have seen about everything
when I see an elephant fly.

I saw a clothes horse, he r'ar up and buck
And they tell me that a man made a vegetable truck
I didn't see that, I only heard
But just to be sociable I'll take your word
I saw a land in slant, I saw a basball bat
I laughed till I thought I'd die
But I think I will have seen about everything
When I see an elephant fly

I even heard a chocolate drop
I went into a store, saw a bicycle shop
You can't deny the things you see,
but I know there's certain things that just can't be
I heard a fireside chat, I saw a baseball bat
I laughed till I thought I'd die

But I think I will have seen about everything
When I see an elephant fly
