Act 2:
The band aims to spread the word. Our heroes are tested.
lyrics
Don't Look Right at the Sun:
Everybody wants the same thing every summer
And everyone gets all burned up by the sun
Go sing songs about the sun
Roll on the grass under the sun
Build a temple to the sun
But man, don't look right at the sun
When the winter comes we all want to wrap up
Everyone hopes the fire stays lit through the night
Sing songs around the fire
Snuggle up next to the fire
Rub your hands over the fire
But man, don't jump into the fire
If everyone could hear the same song at the same time
If we could hang a sign that everyone could see
To shine a light bright as the sun
To build a fire that won't expire
That's our plan, man
That's what needs to be done
