about

So really, trying to reach a rainbow end is about as easy as trying to flush a moth. Seriously. Surely you have better things to do?

lyrics

Can You Reach The Rainbow
It simply can’t be done
Like sending spaceships to the sun
It simply can’t be done
It’s really hard to find that place
A rainbow never leaves a trace
But all those colours, hey it’s worth the chase
Can you reach the rainbow end
It simply can’t be done my friend
Can you change your underpants while you run
It simply can’t be done
It’s really hard to find that place
A rainbow never leaves a trace
Like trying to find the other end of outer space
Can you reach the rainbow end
It simply can’t be done my friend
It simply can’t be done
It’s really hard to find that place
A rainbow never leaves a trace
But all those colours, hey, it’s worth the chase
Can you reach the rainbow end
It simply can’t be done my friend
Like a race between two sleepy sloths
Like dodging lighting, flushing moths
It simply can’t be done
Can you reach the rainbow end
It simply can’t be done my friend
Can you reach the rainbow end

Warm, wise and funny, Barry Peters is an artist worth introducing to every child. ... more
