Tässä kappaleessa idea lähti mysteerikirjaa luettaessa. Laulun teemaksi
muodostui pian jättiläiskäärme ja ahneus. Tässä kokeilin pitkää alkua
minkä jälkeen lauseen loppu tulee nopeasti. Tässä on jopa "efekti",
suulla pidetty käärmeensihinä.. Kertosäkeen rytmi on lainattu jostain,
en nyt vain kuollakseni muista mistä. Oma suosikkikohtani on tuo hieman
pitempi matalaääninen kohta. Kappale on taas Mikserissä, mikäli joku haluaa kuunnella suunnitellun laulumelodian. Kommentit ja kritiikit taas tervetulleita.
Matalaääniset kohdat on taas merkitty suluilla ().

I remeber the old mystic tale
That dreadlock man once told me
In the cave in Richtersveld
Roams this beast of South Africa
It's a place that locals avoid
They know what lives in the depths
You don't want to enter the cave
If you want to stay alive
Grootslang, Grootslang
(The godly guardian snake)
Grootslang, Grootslang
(The keeper of the diamonds)
Hssssss
Grootslang, Grootslang
(The godly guardian snake)
Grootslang, Grootslang
(Let the keeper keep his stones)
Hssssss
Regardless of all the warnings
Four young boys were greedy
Wise man tried to stop them
No they didn't listen to old dread
They entered the dark deep cave
Deeper and deeper they went
Oo look what the boys have found
But wait what's that hissing sound
Hssssss
(A snake that's 50 foot long)
Hssssss
(Diamonds instead of eyes)
Hssssss
(Guarding those precious stones)
Hssssss
(Eating up all intruders)
Hssssss
Everyone knows the boys are dead
Why they have to be so greedy
They chose to ignore the elders
And disobey the words of the wise
In the minds of those who know
Legend of the snake will stay
Will you try to chase those diamonds
Even if you'll know the dangers
Grootslang, Grootslang
(The godly guardian snake)
Grootslang, Grootslang
(The keeper of the diamonds)
Hssssss
Grootslang, Grootslang
(The godly guardian snake)
Grootslang, Grootslang
(Let the keeper keep his stones)
