about

An elephant's quest for fiery vengeance.

lyrics

There it goes, running ‘cross the plains
You’ve heard its cry, you know its name
Creature from the depths of hell
Death and vengeance know it well
It stalks the wicked and the cruel
An evil man would be a fool
To think he could escape its wrath
But one end to evil’s path

[chorus]
HELLEPHANT
TUSKS OF HELL FIRE
HELLEPHANT
HELLISH DESIRES
HELLEPANT
BRIMSTONE SAFARI
HELLEPHANT
SINNERS BE SORRY

LISTEN TO HIM ROAR!!

[Spoken]
The Hellephant is a fearsome beast whose very name unleashes a wave of primal terror in all creatures of the earth, but he was not always this way. Once he had a family just like you and me

[Sung]
Long ago when men were pure
Before the trials it endured
The Hellephant lived a wholesome life
With his children and his wife
They wandered freely through the land
They could hardly understand
The tragedy that lay ahead:
His wife and children, cold and dead

[chorus]

The rage he felt set his soul ablaze
The burning flames caught Satan’s gaze
He offered power and revenge
A chance to walk the earth again
Kill the poachers who killed his young
But his work had just begun
Now he stalks the mortal plane
Killing with a just refrain:

[chorus]

[Spoken]
Should you ever find yourself alone in the savannah... and should you feel a tremor in the ground below you and heat at the back of your neck... know that if your soul is pure the Hellephant shall not harm you... but if you have committed sin against your fellow man there is no haven secret enough to conceal you from his sight, no fortress impenetrable enough to keep his tusks at bay, and no weapon sharp enough to pierce his fiery hide!
