lyrics

'Cause rainbows won't light up the sky
unless you let it rain.
And shiny apples sometimes come with worms
No, you can't give up your laughter
'cause you're scared of a little pain.
It's a lesson that the Kirin never learned. (2x)


Then one day, a fight broke out
and hurtful words were said.
Flaring tempers were inflamed
destruction quickly spread.

"No more talking," yelled our leader
the last thing said aloud.
Into the Stream of Silence
we stepped as a crowd.


'Cause rainbows won't light up the sky
unless you let it rain.
And shiny apples sometimes come with worms
No, you can't give up your laughter
'cause you're scared of a little pain.
It's a lesson that the Kirin never learned.


They didn't like my jokes and songs
and daily dose of news.
The plays I wrote, the speeches spoke
variety revues.

The village leader made it clear
I had to make my choice.
I could stay and live with them
or I could keep my voice.

Or I could keep my voice.


Rainbows won't light up the sky
unless you let it rain.
And shiny apples sometimes come with worms
No, you can't give up your laughter
'cause you're scared of a little pain.
It's a lesson that the Kirin never learned.

Rainbow Rainbow light up the sky
unless you let it rain.
And candles just won't glow until they're burned.
No, you can't give up your laughter
'cause you're scared of a little pain.
It's a lesson that my village never learned.


'Cause rainbows won't light up the sky
unless you let it rain.
