Elephants In Every Room

                            CRB in the Burrell Collection sculpture garden, Glasgow Scotland

There are people who grow up 
          With an elephant in the room
There are people who grow up
          In a room full of elephants
                                               
                                                         Dealing with elephants
                Whether one or a hundred 
                Can be tricky 

Don't want to ignore them
         But don't want to indulge them either
Careful when you approach them
         They can be as deadly as a man-eating tiger

                                  Some people, they learn to love
                 Their elephants
                 Some people, they learn to hate them

Whatever the case may be
         An elephant that isn't properly addressed
Soon becomes unsatisfied with just one room
         And eventually takes over the whole house
