Under the Rainbow
’twas during a full moon
I met a medieval knight
He said things once were different
Rainbows used to shine at night
But God was getting older
And he liked a little nap
Yet he kept being woken
So he called that Merlin chap
Merlin said I’ve got a spell
I’ll cast it if I may
My spell will make sure that we get
Our rainbows in the day
So, you can doze serenely, God
the ancient wizard said
If you want a siesta
You can be a sleepyhead
God thought how things used to go
He’d been a restless soul
For when the moon passed through the bow
The angels all yelled ‘GOAL!!’
