Rainbow Colored Camouflage

I slid down the rainbow Yet you couldn't see all my colourful friends escaping insanity Unicorns and fairies dancing in rainbow light If we weren't camouflaged we might give you a fright Some friends are bright yellow others are quite deep blue Seven colours to choose many wore more than two My friend, Count Dracula is mostly fond of red The Dye from his clothing was gifted by the dead I'm fond of indigo some others prefer green But the best was violet as worn by Mr. Bean No need for sunglasses they will not help you see Camouflaged in rainbow don't you wish you were me?
