Honeymoon in Polynesia

Bill is a toddy-man he climb up the tree
he gonna cut a lot of toddy for the kakaoke
A babai in his buia from the Unimwane
He got a lot to do before the big botaki
When the string band play and the children sing
Bill gives Michelle a wedding ring

Maori-O, ko wara
I mararung
Teuana te VB, taioka
Taioka

When the string band play and the children sing
Bill gives Michelle a wedding ring

Sitting under a coconut palm in a kekia built for two
A perfect Polynesian picture by a blue lagoon
For their honeymoon

Ka mate ka mate, ka ora ka ora
Ka mate ka mate, ka ora ka ora
Tenei te tangata pu'ru-huru
Na'a nei tiki, mai whaka-whiti te
Ra hupane, ka-hupane
A hupane! Whiti te ra hi!

Bill he still cut toddy in the coconut tree
He gonna need a lot of toddy now for his family
His children are growing, count them 1-2-3
And everyone is happy, as they can be
And while the string bands play and the children sing
Michelle will wear Bill's wedding ring
And while the string bands play and the children sing
Michelle will wear Bill's wedding ring

GLOSSARY:
bits of this song are in Gilbertese (aka Kiribati)
toddy - coconut sap
kakaoke - alcoholic drink made from fermented toddy
babai - swamp taro
buia - house
Unimane - village elder
botaki - party
Maour-o, ko wara - Hello, how are you
I mararung - I'm fine
Teuana te VB, taioka - Two cans of Victoria Bitter, please
Kekia - thatched sleeping plaform

...and another bit is (my attempt at) Maori:
Ka mate, ka mate...etc - Maori Haka
Rough translation: We are going to die! We are going to live!
This is the man so hairy, who fetched and made shine the sun!
Upward step, another upward step, another... the sun shines! Hi!

(and yes, before anyone mentions it - I know that Gilbertese is a Micronesian language, not Polynesian - just deal with it)

Once owned by old Brando

To feel those tradewinds blow

His dream of paradise that's for me
To have some doughnuts and dogs with you

Honeymoon in Polynesia
by WreckdoM

Remember when you said I was your one and only lover,
The greatest of all men of which there could be no other?
Someday we'd find the perfect place to settle down together,
Our love would be the kind of love that last forfuckingever.
Now I see you've changed your mind and isn't that a bitch?
If you need me I'll be at my home breakin' my fuckin' wrist.

My boy stopped by with a couple beers to bitch about the past
He said he never liked you so I kicked his fuckin' ass
Last thing I need is some asshole tellin' me I made a mistake
If everybody knew you were no damn good why'd they wait so fuckin' late?
I got some cookware and a cuisinart and a kingsized waterbed
and a honeymoon in polynesia I'll take when I am dead

It's a honeymoon
I'm never goin' to
It's a honeymoon
but the weddings through
It's a honeymoon
and yet my balls are blue
It's a honeymoon
Yeah, well fuck you too!

a warrior dies in battle
climbers die on the cliff
gardeners die by aging
in the end they're all stiff

when fighter fall, another
will rise - a new name
fame in war is soon forgotten
but hunger remains

honeymoon in the garden of eden
it's not what it seems
after dining on cassava and honey
i've had these weird dreams

where i don't know if it's trippin
can't tell when it's not
but i can't wait till we're goin
don't need what's forgot

and i've come to think
that this posturing act is a gas
but if someone's gonna fall then I'll pass
cause it really isn't me after all

spent some time in Maupiti
what I remember is thin
MoTu One hosts a pleasent reefee
great place for a swim


now i can't see where I'm going
just know where i been
i don't know what I'm saying
but I know what I mean

and i come to think
that this posturing act is a gas
but if someone's gonna fall then I'll pass
cause it really isn't me after all

and dedicated to Bill and his new wife, (with the exception of the last verse off course)
Congratulation on your marriage.


<b>Honeymoon in Polynesia</b>
<i>- Andre was here at midnight</i>

We ran so fast,
That no one can
Understand the things
We once had
The time is here
And the time is now
To pack our bags
And leave this town

The night is young
And the night is ours
The car is waiting
And the door is gone
You drop your bag
But yet we move on
There’s no time to play
And the night is gone

The plane is ready
And the coffee is hot
They call our names
And now we are one

20,000 feet
up in the air
you look at me
and I grab your hand
a tender kiss
the smell of your hair
makes me wonder why I took so damn
Long, long, long
To ask you dear
To be my wife
My only pride
My sweet lullaby

It doesn’t matter
That’s just the past
Cause now we are here,
In our wedding night
Lets land already
I can see from here
Its Polynesia in my sight
And she wants to dance with me all the time
And she wants to dance with me all the time

I can see from here
We are getting close
The seatbelt sign is turned on

A big explosion to the right
it Shakes our bodies
From side to side
The roof is gone
I can see the sky
I can see you baby to the right
Your holding on
To my arm
Your telling me
You don’t want to die
You will be ok
You will alright
I can see your seatbelt
Is on too tight
Your loosing grip
Am gaining flight
I should follow instructions all the time.

we'll have a honeymoon in Polynesia and we'll make each other feel so fine

we'll have a honeymoon in Polynesia and we'll be sucking down limes (lives, lines)

we'll have a honeymoon in Polynesia and we'll make each other ... feel

hope this honeymoon don't end too soon, if feels like it could feel right through you

Second honeymoon
thought we’d spend it
in a monsoon
Polynesia here we come

Pack the Coppertone
it’s so sunny out
must be far from home
Baby please don’t pout

Tahiti sweety
Hope she don’t catch me
Chewing up the scenery
Or will be the couch for me

Honeymoon in Polynesia
What a place to dream
Saki saki bukkake bukkake
Saki bukkake baby

Went to the opera
Never laughed so hard
I put up with it
Even though it sucked
Do it for my babe
Else I won’t get fucked

So glad that I’m here with you
wedding vows all renewed
look into Tahitian sun
knowing you’re the only one

Honeymoon in Polynesia
What a place to dream
Saki saki bukkake bukkake
Saki bukkake baby

Honeymoon in Polynesia <i>by: Hoblit</i>

We could dine at night
by the hanging lights
and drink champaign
until we feel no pain
Then we could wake
to the morning rain

while we honeymoon in polynesia
while we honeymoon in polynesia

try to have a little fun and
try to get a little sun and
maybe we could make a little love
try to forget about our lives and
try to put it all behind us
while we honeymoon in polynesia
while we honeymoon in polynesia

[Freddielove]

Honeymoon in Polynesia by Freddielove

Last night when you couldn't sleep
and you stayed awake to dream
Lying naked on the bedroom floor
in between the last moonbeams
Can you give up everything you've known
and turn your back on all you see
For me for me

Tasting peaches counting good times gone
standing outside on the lawn
Golden figures hide their voices low
savage faces get it on
Watch the rotation of the midday sun
suspended from a high balloon
Leaving the work undone

A Polynesian honeymoon

Burning embers lift away in flight
traveled out across the sea
Landed on an island all alone
waited for your company
Lost all you clothing and you cut your hair
and you gave yourself away
For free for free
The sun is a memory
and tonght there is no moon
Not dark on our stretch of sand
but we know that it will be soon
But we'll have no problems leaving
old lives where they lie
If this isn't paradise
We'll look for it where it dies
Or until love goes out of tune

A Polynesian honeymoon

We know we'd make a big mistake
to know what path the ship will take
All of the good things you can make
Out of nothing out of nothing

We watched the sky as it turned red
all of the thoughts inside out heads
But we'll just leave them there instead
Ain't it something Ain't it something
