Overall Meaning

The song "Elephants Have Wrinkles" by Tumble Tots is a fun and upbeat tune that describes the various parts of an elephant's body that have wrinkles. The song starts with the repeated line "Elephants have wrinkles, wrinkles, wrinkles," which is then followed by a list of body parts where wrinkles can be found, such as on their toes, knees, hips, ears, and trunk. The chorus repeats throughout the song, while the verses add new body parts with wrinkles to the list.


The lines "No one knows why ay ay ay" suggest that nobody really knows why elephants have wrinkles in so many places on their bodies. Interestingly, the song also touches on the idea of elephants having wrinkles on their teeth, which is then dismissed as ridiculous.


The song is clearly intended for children and is a fun way for them to learn about different parts of an elephant's body. The simple melody and repetitive chorus make the song easy to sing along to, while the playful lyrics are sure to get kids dancing and singing.
