A long time ago in a land far away
Lived the pineapple princess, Tiki
She was sweet as a peach, in a pineapple way,
But so sad she hardly speaky
Still, If you listen well,
You'll hear her secret wish.
(Aloha, everybody, my name is Tiki! )
I long to free a truly remarkable fish,
My sweet prince.
Humuhumunukunukuaoua'a,
Makihiki malahini-hoo
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, Ooh.
Hawana wakawakawakaniki pu pu pu
(Ryan, the fog! )
She dreams of a boy, who is under a spell
That has left him all wet and scaly.
I sing from my heart of the power of love,
Just a girl with a ukulele.
Come to me, my sweet one, and be still
I'll grasp your tail and stroke each tender gill
My sweet prince.
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a,
Makihiki malahini-hoo
Humuhumunukunukua'Pua'A, Ooh.
Hawana wakawakawakaniki pu pu pu
The clouds turned grey, and the big sky cried,
And the ocean had a fit.
(Ryan, where is my ocean! ? )
Then the wind went whoosh, and thunder cracked,
And mighty mount Fufu spit.
Mighty Mount Fufu spit!
T-T-T-Tiki T-Tiki
Wanna speaky, speaky, speaky with the mighty spirit Fufu
T-T-T-Tiki T-Tiki
Wanna speaky, speaky, speaky
So words I will not mince.
Please make a man of my fresh fish prince
His is real fish alk
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a,
Makihiki malahini-hoo
Humuhumunukunukua'Pua'A, Ooh.
Hawana wakawakawakaniki pu pu pu
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a,
Makihiki malahini-hoo
Humuhumunukunukua'Pua'A, Ooh.
wakawakawakaniki pu pu pu
wakawakawakaniki pu pu pu
wakawakawakaniki pu pu pu
