Can't Believe You're Gone

Puny Earthling

The Future

This is what I'm talking about 
Always kicking and shoving and pushing down 
Spinning concealing hiding the truth 
Don't know why anybody listens to you 
I can't hear a word that you say 
Get off your knees wash the blood from your teeth 
Today is as good as any day 
To wash, wash yourself clean 

And I don't know how many times I have to say 
How many times do I have to say defend the oppressed 
Plead the case of the fatherless 
Plead the case of the wido 

Otherwise we might see 
Otherwise we might hear 
Otherwise we might understand 
And we might turn and be healed 
Until the cities lie in ruin 
Until all of the fields are destroyed 
Until everyone is sent far away 
And all that remain are laid to waste

Otherwise

We Are Running Around

Keeai

There’s some things you ought to know
The sky is up, the ground’s below
But you can’t fly, and I won’t help you under

Understand I’d like to learn
A little more but I’m not sure
Just who to ask when no one has the answer

We made you in the dark
But one day you won’t trust in us anymore
When everything we told you seems a lie

It’s true

If peace is bad, then war is good
Some die too young, there’re some that should
It makes no sense, but no one said it had to

There’s just one thing that’s sure
We are the cause, we have the cure
But who’s to say if this will make it better?

You came out from the dark
Now you can not believe in us anymore
Why would we bring you into such a life

For you

Can you be everything I wanted to be
Can you be everything that I couldn’t be
Can you see everything I wanted to see
Can you be everything that I couldn’t be

For You

We're like monkeys with a button
Make us feel good help us to forget
Willfully ignorant
Help us to be distracted

We all wanna lay down at night
Just close our eyes and go to sleep
Except i can’t sleep at all these days
With the nightmares of some foreign place

We're like monkeys with a button
Make us feel good Help us to forget
Willfully ignorant
Find ways to be distracted

Hide behind false ignorance
Insisting on our innocence
Sharing the same guilt everyone
Sing along to the same song

With confidence
We’re bustin’ out our fancy clothes
And dustin’ off our dancing shoes
For our own funeral

We’ll all tweet
omg the best eulogy
That party was so much fun
But where did everyone go?
Hashtag we’re all dead

We're like monkeys with a button
Make us feel good Help us to forget
Willfully ignorant
Find ways to be distracted

We built these machines
To dig our own graves
And now we’re working hard
Everyday to maintain
Do you think that
We should shut them down
Do you think that
We could shut them down

We’ll sleep under the stars at night
When we’ve finally lost everything
And we can finally breathe
We’ll have everything we could ever need
When we’ve finally lost everything
Everything

Monkeys With a Button

Concentration of power is corrupted
Guns and money to keep the masses in line
Re-emergence of common language
Act as one and our voice begins to

Rise up
Spreading now it’s out of control
It’s in the airwaves
From the tower to the palm of our hands

It’s our hope
To be as one
It’s our hope
To be as one

For the best we don’t live forever
Cynicism sets in and gets worse with age
Every generation is like the last one
Every one of them says that things must

Change
No direction now
Watch the leaderless
Movement advance

It’s our hope
To be as one
It’s our hope
To be as one

In the Airwaves

 	
I am sick of your stories
I am sick of your stories
All the whining and the crying
They are just like
They are just like mine

We sold our spines and
Poisoned our minds
And this is what we get
Cause we are
Evil

Nothing but evil
Only evil
Always evil
Everyone is evil

We do the best we can
To hide ourselves
From the truth we fear
Hiding from the light

We start to blend into one another
A big gray cloud hovering over
These poor little creatures that would otherwise
Be playing in the sun with great big smiles
Play in the sun with great big smiles

So let’s sing a song where
Nobody’s wrong and everyone can agree
We are perfect and live in harmony

We’ll cover our eyes and tell the lie
We’ll say this isn’t all about money
Cause we are evil

Nothing but evil
Only evil
Always evil
Everyone is evil

We Are Evil

     As Demiera Harris (theequalground.com) put it, "...Wild Bears Attack Elephants is here to kick you in the teeth (musically of course) while sending flowers to your hospital room after." In other words, the WBAE sound always comes back to guitars and awesome drum parts in one form or another with a library that is probably best described as alternative rock.

Wild Bears Attack Elephants consists primarily of Collin James (guitar/vox), Beren Alexander (drums) and Adam Whitmore (guitar/vox). Contributions have also made by a host of others - Bob Bretzlaff, Nathan James, Joel Berry, and Jeremy White.

The members and contributors of WBAE have been working together in various combinations for many years, starting in Linden, MI with bands (in chronological order) Spork, Fat Souls, and Espers. Check out our older work here: http://wbae.co/fb

Prior bands have focused on playing live shows, primarily in the Flint, MI area, but WBAE had been limited to being a songwriting and recording endeavor with Adam and Beren on opposite sides of the state of MI and Collin living in Japan.  Collin moved back to MI in late 2013 and rehearsals and preparations for live shows ensued.  Rock.

The recording process is completely DIY, with recording and mixing and mastering efforts being handled by Adam and Collin.
