Rhino Skin Lyrics

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
