Maui Hawaiian Sup'pa Man |
Oh, tall is the tale of the mischievous one |
Who fished out all the islands and captured the sun |
His deeds and tasks I will unmask |
So that you’ll understand |
That before there was a Clark Kent |
There was a Hawaiian Superman |
He fished out all the islands with a magic hook |
There would’ve been more but somebody looked |
He pulled morning sky, the sun he entwined |
To slow down his flight, so kapa could dry |
Mischievous, marvelous, magical Maui |
Hero of this land |
The one, the only, the ultimate Hawaiian Supaman |
Oh Maui, Maui, Maui, Hawaiian supaman |
Oh Maui, Maui, Maui, Hawaiian supaman |
The secret of fire was locked somewhere in time |
So when the ahi died in the hale kuke, no way to re-ignite |
So off he goes in search of those who hold the information |
So that fire could be used by all the future generations |
He found that alae held the fire connection |
But his plan of deception fell short of perfection |
With no other choice he had to get mean |
So he squeezed alae’s throat until she screamed the secret |
Mischievous, marvelous, magical Maui |
Hero of this land |
The one, the only, the ultimate Hawaiian Supaman |
Oh Maui, Maui, Maui, Hawaiian supaman |
Oh Maui, Maui, Maui, Hawaiian supaman |
