Humuhumunukunukuapua'a

Humuhumunukunukuapua'a

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 that 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

[Chorus]
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a
Makihiki malahini-who
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 lender gill
My sweet prince

[Chorus]

Now this is where we lean into the whole
kabuki thing

The clouds turned grey, and the big sky cried,
and the ocean had a fit

(Ryan, where’s 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
So words I will not mince

Please make a man of my fresh fish prince

This is real fish talk... No lie

And then the fish turns into a
gorgogeus prince and sings:
I'm Prince Humuhumunukunukuapua'a
Amakahiki malahini who
(With me!)
Humumunukunukuapua'a
Ooh!
Hawana wakawakawakaniki pu pu pu

Everybody!

[Chorus]

wakawakawakaniki pu pu pu
wakawakawakaniki pu...
pu...
pu!

Ahh...!!!
