- Elephant Lyrics / with translationsWell, he feels like an elephant
Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it
He knows that you're dreaming about being loved by him.
Too bad your chances are slim
And it's not like mister shook to get shy when they ask him who is on top
There must be something deep down in the dark down there
He's not too easily scared
He's got friends but they got fear
Wouldn't care too much if he just disappeared
Oh, look see there he is now coming down the stairs
Here he 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
No one been remembered a thing when they saw him again
That's how it is 'til the end
Yeah
Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it
He knows that you're dreaming about being loved by him.
Too bad your chances are slim
And it's not like mister shook to get shy when they ask him who is on top
There must be something deep down in the dark down there
He's not too easily scared
He's got friends but they got fear
Wouldn't care too much if he just disappeared
Here he 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
No one been remembered a thing when they saw him again
That's how it is 'til the end
Yeah

When we analyze the meaning behind the words, the track 'Elephant' from Tame Impala delivers a character who not only possesses but also displays the utmost confidence and even extravagance, represented by the likening of feeling like an elephant. The text illustrates a person who is most defiantly daring and full of himself, but still, behind the exterior, there is a feeling of tenderness and lack of confidence that is covered by bravado and the need to be noticed in a particular way by other people. Elephant lyrics largely points out the presence of emotional turmoil, sorrow, love lost, pondering, and withdrawal. In the same breath, the song conveys the idea of loneliness and solitude as being very important, self-image and identity issues, and fear and vulnerability as common human conditions.
