Hula Maiden

Well I got into waikiki

And I spend my time up in the hotel room

No sunburn for me

No friends no family



Yes I see the view

Well I think I seen it somewhere before

Curled up on the sand

Curled up on the floor



And the hula maiden says

I'll give you everything for free

You're as hungry as the tide

That's drowning me



Well I took my big free ride

I went out to the big barbecue

And I got smashed on the beach

I was thinking about you



This is my big aloha

Brought to you from the volcano state



Where they serve up your soul

For $3.99 a plate



And the hula maiden says

I'll give you everything for free

Oh sugar you're as hungry as the tide

That's washing over me



And the hula maiden said

Oh darling I see it in your eyes

Well did you do it over here beautiful

Did you come here to die

Well she said did you come here to buy



Well this my big aloha

Coming to you from the volcano state

Where they lose track of your soul

And never bring you your spaghetti plate
