One day... back in high school,
i was hanging with the kids that were cool.
i was sitting in study hall;
i had my desk right up against the wall.
and from that wall i peeled off a chip of paint,
i ate it and started feeling faint.
i don't know what dimension i'm in,
but the room is starting to spin.
oh no, and i said.
Chorus:
what's that spinning around my head?
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
ate some paint chips full of lead.
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
now i can't stop wetting the bed.
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
When i went to my senior prom,
i was feeling okay. i was feeling right on.
but then my date left me for the class nerd;
that craziest thing i ever heard.
then i started drinking the punch,
and i nearly lost my lunch.
oh no, and i said.
Chorus:
what's that spinning around my head?
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
barfing up a lung is what i dread.
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
my breath must smell like mr. ed's.
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
I was working late at the factory;
well let me tell you what happened to me.
we were making a vat of rubber cement,
but i don't know where my mind went.
i forgot my facemask,
and boy i tell you i was hating that gas.
oh no, and i said.
Chorus:
what's that spinning around my head?
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
half my brain cells must be dead.
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
doctors pumped me full of meds.
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
all these toxins in my head.
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
woke up with a girl named fred.
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
pink elephants!
