Rainbow Serpent Lyrics

A thousand years ago
In a far and distant land
The people pledged the earth
And the children lend a hand
Then came the drought
And all the crop would die
They called upon the serpent
To bring mercy from the sky

Rainbow Serpent

Scales of a million colours
Eyes of crimson fire
Sliding cross the universe
And cracking the sky
The shaman wields his cane
The spirits will arise
Ancient world, ancient rules
Pa*sed down through centuries

Do the rain dance
The ritual's begun
Help this peaceful tribe
And bless us with rain
