Shonen Knife Concrete Animals Lyrics

Generally speaking every park has them
Commonly they are at the sand box
Occasionally they are vandalized by someone
They are painted many colors

Elephant, raccoon, tiger
Concrete animals, concrete animals
Can I ride on your back
Concrete animals, concrete animals

Let's take a picture together
They are too big to carry back home They are too heavy for me to move
After the sun sets they have a secret party

Nobody knows they dance together, pony, rabbit, zebra
Generally speaking, they make the children happy
Commonly they are playing at the park
But if it is dirty and dangerous, where can the children play together?
