Climbing climbing climbing 
          The air gets rarer 
          The air gets scarcer 
          The clouds get closer 
          The clouds get lower 
        Up the fog, up the yucca 
          To the tundra 
          Higher Higher than these 
          Stretch the bald Andes 
           
          At last the top 
        And what a sight. 
          Purple sky, red grass, 
          Neon green rivulets 
          cut through blue jungles 
          A pink moon shines above 
          And a Rainbow 
        Seven Colors 
          Not red not green not blue 
          Not orange not violet not yellow 
          Not indigo or even black or white 
          Strange colors not seen before 
          The colors of the unknown 
        From a glass of orangish green.
