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
