[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Mount Ruapehu starts to roar,
Shaking the ground like never before,
Ash is falling, dark as night,
The air is heavy, there’s no clear sight.
[Chorus]
Stay inside, close the door,
Breathe is tough, don’t risk it no more,
Cover up, keep calm, don’t roam,
Safety first — your house is home.
[Verse 2]
Visibility’s gone, can’t see far,
Ash on the roof, ash on the car,
The sirens call, the warnings say,
Indoors now — it’s the only way.
[Chorus]
Stay inside, close the door,
Breathe is tough, don’t risk it no more,
Cover up, keep calm, don’t roam,
Safety first — your house is home.
[Outro]
Mount Ruapehu speaks tonight,
Wait it out till morning light.
