The Elephant is big and strong It’s history runs deep and long But lots of Elephant’s are starting to die These friendly creatures and I’ll tell you why, They’re being killed by humans all around Tusks being sawn off is a harrowing sound Just for those tusks, they destroy the whole thing For the sake of an ornament, chess piece or ring So although you can’t hear it The elephant cries Don’t buy the ivory Because one of us dies.
