Olifant echo

Olifant echo

Pizza Churros Snack
On the road to El Pas
De la Casa Andorra
Riot of assembled
Texts mountain high

Pizza Churros Snack
On the summit of life
Gone to shop where
An olifant wailed Roland
To a martyr’s death

Pizza Churros Snack
Who the hell plays
Olifant tunes anymore
Would we even know
Olifant echoing here

Pizza Churros Snack
The ivory tusk trumpets
Or is it the hoarse
Braying of a donkey
Troubadour lost
