Cage The Elephant

Cage The Elephant is an American rock band from Bowling Green, Kentucky that was formed in 2006. This group consists of five members: Matt Shultz, Brad Shultz, Lincoln Parish, Daniel Tichenor, and Jared Champion.  Their first ever album is called Cage the Elephant which was released in 2008.  Their genres include alternative rock, garage rock, punk blues, and indie rock. The only other two albums that they have released are Thank You, Happy Birthday (2011-2012), and Melophobia (2013-present). The only songs that i really enjoy would be Come A Little Closer, from Melophobia and Take It Or Leave It also from the same album. Here are the lyrics for those songs

"Come A Little Closer"


Time shakes, found you at the water
At first you were my father, now I love you like a brother
Earthquakes shake the dust behind you
This world at times will blind you
Still I know I'll see you there


Come a little closer, then you'll see

Come on, come on, come on

Things aren't always what they seem to be
Come on, come on, come on
Do you understand the things that you would see here
Come on, come on, come on
Do you understand the things that you've been dreaming
Come a little closer, then you'll see



Heartbreaks, the heavy world's upon your shoulders

Will we burn or we just smolder

Somehow I know I'll find you there
Oooh, I wanna see if you can change it, change it
Still I know I'll see you there



Come a little closer, then you'll see

Come on, come on, come on

Things aren't always what they seem to be
Come on, come on, come on
Do you understand the things that you would see here
Come on, come on, come on
Do you understand the things that you've been dreaming
Come a little closer, then you'll see
Come a little closer, then you'll see



Ten thousand people stand alone now

And in the evening the sun sets

Tomorrow it will rise
Time flies by, they all sang along
Time flies by, they all sang along
Time flies by, they all sang along
Time flies - bye, bye



Come a little closer, then you'll see

Come on, come on, come on
Come a little closer, then you'll see  
     
Come a little closer, then you'll see
Come a little closer, then you'll see                                "Take It Or Leave It"

Baby you should know by now that I'’m right…, for you.
But every time I step to you, you change… your tune.
Sweet wheel of death keeps us holding our breathe.
I step to the right, you move to the left.
Unless no one else.
I'’d rather die to myself.

Oh why, won’'t you make up your mind?
I think I must confess.
I'’m starting to unwind.
I been trippin' over you.
So tell me something new.
Take it or leave it….

Maybe I should pack my things and move on?
Maybe I’'m foolin' myself and you’re already gone?
Watching the flames wither and fade.
Trying to make sense of the look on your face.
I'’m down, I’'m an itch.
Just playin' that I can hold on.

Oh why, won’'t you make up your mind?
I think I must confess.
I'’m learning to unwind.
I'’ve been trippin' over you.
So tell me something new.
Take it or leave it….

Baby please.
Oh baby please.
Stay with me or cut me free.
It’s all of me.
Oh why, won’t you make up your mind?
I think I must confess.
I'’m starting to unwind.
I been trippin' over you.
So tell me something new.
Take it or leave it….
Take it or leave it………
