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? (This extra verse was included on a European release. I think it makes the song darker, less childlike, less Shonen Knifey happy. Better to wrap it up with the secret party!) Concrete Animals, Concrete Animals Can I ride on your back Concrete Animals, Concrete Animals Let's take a picture together
