squeeze the tubes and empty bottles and
take a bow take a bow take a bow
it's what you feel now
what you ought to what you ought to
an elephant that's in the room is
tumbling tumbling tumbling
in duplicate and triplicate and
plastic bags and
duplicate and triplicate
basically accusing people who say "I've done my bit" because it's not enough and they're kidding themselves if they think it is (there's an elephant in the room).
