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

     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.
