Worshipping the Sun

by Rob Henderson

To the tune of "Walking on the Sun" by Smash Mouth

It ain't no joke, I'd like to build us all a Grove
And teach the world to chant in perfect harmony
And teach the world to make their off'rings to the Kindreds
Hey I know it's just a song, but it's part of the liturgy
We know we're on the track, that it went out but it's back
It's just like any trad, it attracts the folks with facts
And just like fashion, it's a passion for the weird and the odd
If you are Druids they'll come and join you just to worship the gods

(CHORUS):
So don't delay, act now, it's time to sing and shout
And let's all follow the ways of pagans from the old days
If you want schism, then try monotheism
But if you want some fun, you might as well be worshipping the sun!

Two thousand years ago, they pondered and they wandered
Into Ireland and Britain and together they stopped
And they folked out with the Bards around a bon fire
Just a'singin' and clappin', man, what the heck happened?
Well, some were bought off, some were fought off, some were moanin'
And some got back up and fought against the Romans
And their kids were Mithraists and Jesus chicks
Because Christians were switchin' the true meaning of it

(CHORUS)

It ain't no joke when we purify with incense smoke
And the Awen and the Earth Mother have been invoked
And then the Gatekeeper opens the Tree and Well and Fire
And then the Fool gives some food to offer the Outsiders
Then the rest, our guests, starting off with the Ancestors
And the Nature Spirits next, so we can be blessed
Then ask the Shining Ones to be with us today
They need to be here when we sing and dance around the bile'!

(CHORUS)
