Lahaina |
I was sitting at a table on an open bay |
Waiting for drink of rum |
When i asked my waiter for the time of day |
She said look out there’s a centipede coming your way |
In lahaina, the sugar kane grow |
In lahaina, the living is slow |
In lahaina, the mangos are sweet |
But the centipede he crawls all over your feet |
I was lying by the water in the morning |
Sunshaded by a coconut tree |
When i turned around it was all i could see |
There was great big centipede staring at me |
I had only just a second to decide what to do While looking at his poisonous fangs |
When i said i thought it was a beautiful day |
He said «wow mr hall i think your pushing my leg |
