You need rhino skin If you're gonna begin To walk Through this world You need elephant balls If you don't want to crawl On your hands Through this world
Oh my love if I reveal Every secret I've concealed How many thoughts would you steal How much of my pain would you feel
You need eagles wings To get over things That make no sense In this world
You need rhino skin If you're gonna pretend You're not hurt by this world
If you listen long enough You can hear my skin grow tough Love is painful to the touch Must be made of stronger stuff
You need rhino skin To get to the end Of the maze through this world
You need rhino skin Or you're gonna give in To the needles and pins The arrows of sin The evils of men You need rhino skin
