lyrics
You can't eat the elephant whole
You have to carve it up or else you will choke
You can't drink the lake in one go
You have to sip it down or else you will drown
You can't eat the elephant whole
You have to carve it up or else you will choke
You can't shift the pyramid whole
You shift it brick by brick lest you make yourself sick
I'm choking - pat me on the back
I'm choking - pat me on the back
And carve the elephant up
You can't eat the elephant whole
You have to carve it up or else you will choke
You can't drink the lake in one go
You have to sip it down or else you will drown
Man kann sich nicht jeden Schuh anziehen
Wer über was Wasser geht, der muss Barfuß gehn
You can't shift the pyramid whole
You shift it brick by brick lest you make yourself... sick
You can't eat the elephant whole
You have to carve it up or else you will choke
You can't drink the lake in one go
You have to sip it down or else you will drown

I really really love this release. For me when I listen to Steve I love to "relax" to listen to the nuances. The bells and tabla's and on this first listening the Balance of Sound brings me into the music and holds me there. I like that feeling!

Slugabed & Samuel Organ join forces to create glitchy pastoral soundscapes that feel uncannily modern and hauntingly medieval. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 18, 2021
