[Intro - Upstroke guitar, horn stab, trumpet melody]
Pick it up! Pick it up! Pick it up now!
[Verse 1]
I was huntin' in the Sunken Hollow, watchin' where I tread
When the ground began to rumble and shake beneath my stead
Thought it was a Tetsucabra, thought it was a crab
Then the scales began to rise up and wrap around my leg!
[Chorus - Horns accent every other line]
It's a NA-JA-RA-LA! Snake wyvern in the hall!
It'll coil around you tightly, make you feel ten feet tall!
It's a NA-JA-RA-LA! Shed its skin right on the floor!
Now I'm pickin' up the parts to make some armor for the tour!
[Verse 2 - Walking bass line, bouncy rhythm]
The hunters in Dundorma said "Don't step into the light"
But the scales look like some records and I wanted them tonight
Now I'm wrapped up in a spiral, can't move my dual blades
Guess I'll wait until it tires and then bash it in the face!
[Chorus]
It's a NA-JA-RA-LA! Snake wyvern in the hall!
It'll coil around you tightly, make you feel ten feet tall!
It's a NA-JA-RA-LA! Shed its skin right on the floor!
Now I'm pickin' up the parts to make some armor for the tour!
[Bridge - Sax solo, very bouncy, skanking rhythm]
[Breakdown - Slower, trombone slide]
They say it's based on a legend... something about the earth...
A giant serpent in the ground that shows the land its worth...
(Trumpet stab) BUT RIGHT NOW IT'S JUST ANNOYING!
[Chorus - Faster, more frantic ska tempo]
IT'S A NA-JA-RA-LA! Snake wyvern in the hall!
It'll coil around you tightly, make you feel ten feet tall!
IT'S A NA-JA-RA-LA! Shed its skin right on the floor!
Now I'm pickin' up the parts to make some armor for the tour!
[Outro - Staccato horn hits, crowd participation]
Pick it up! (NAJA!)
Pick it up! (RALA!)
Pick it up! Pick it up! Pick it up now!
(One final horn blast)
