Il testo della Holiday in waikiki

I won a competition in a little column in my local paper
So i packed my bags and flew across the sea all on my local paper
I sailed to hawaii in the u.s.a.
Im just an english boy who won a holiday in waikiki

I didnt realize it was commercialized when i unpacked my cases
Because a genuine hawaii ukulele cost me 30 guineas
And even when im swimming i have to pay
Im just an english boy who won a holiday in waikiki, oh yeah, yeah

Across the coral sands i saw a hula hula dancer, looking pretty
I asked her where she came from and she said to me
I come from new york city and my mother is italian and my dads a greek
Im just an english boy who won a holiday in waikiki

Its a hooka, hooka on the shiny briny on a wake a hola
And in a little shack they had a little sign that said coca cola
And even all the grass skirts were pvc
Im just an english boy who won a holiday in waikiki, oh yeah, yeah

In waikiki, in waikiki
