THE ELEPHANT TALKS BACK

How many of my kind could pack
inside a little car?
Three in the front, three in the back,
but the car would not go far.

Why don't I ride a bicycle?
It's simple. Please don't tell.
It's all because my thumb's too big
to operate the bell.

Can you tell time? Then tell me this:
What time is it when I
decide to rest upon the fence
and gaze up at the sky?

You think it's time to fix the fence?
No, my friend, you're wrong.
I gave up peanuts, lost some weight.
Besides, the fence is strong.

It can be any time at all.
There's no way you can tell.
I love to watch the sky at night,
but daylight works as well.
