Dance on the Mountain

[Verse 1]

Kalashnikovs

Were brought across

The mountain

On the back of mules

They stored their weapons

In a school

[Chorus]

There's something wrong

There's something wrong

Something terrifying

Something terrifying

[Verse 2]

And now the slopes

Something terrifying

Of dry grass

Something terrifying

Hold crouching boys

Something terrifying

Watch their fathers dance

Something terrifying

Holding hands

Something terrifying

They follow the drums

Something terrifying

[Chorus]

And something terrifying

Something terrifying

Is going on

Something terrifying

[Verse 3]

The oldest dancer

Takes off his hat

To place a glass of water

On his head

Bares his teeth

Wakes the dead

[Chorus]

This is their land

They dance upon

Something terrifying

Is going on

[Interlude]

Something terrifying

Something terrifying

Something terrifying

Something terrifying

[Verse 4]

The dancer falls

To kneel before

The village elder

Stains on his shirt

Rising up

Growing strong

[Chorus]

The boy children

Start to dance

It's terrifying

It’s terrifying

[Bridge]

In the distance

People call

Like a river

Running home

In the distance

People call

Like a river

Calling out

In the distance

People call

In the oldest

Language known

[Chorus]

It's terrifying

It's terrifying

It's terrifying
