Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A long time ago, in a land far away
Lived the Pineapple Princess Tiki
She was sweet as a peach in a pineapple way
But so sad that she hardly speaky
Still, if you listen well, you'll hear her secret wish
[Verse 2]
Aloha, everybody, My name is Tiki!
[Verse 3]
I long to free a truly remarkable fish
My sweet prince
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a
Makihiki malahini who
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, ooh
Hawana waka, waka, waka, niki pu, pu, pu
[Verse 4]
Ryan, the fog?
[Verse 5]
She dreams of a boy who is under a spell
That has left him all wet and scaly
[Verse 6]
I sing from my heart of the power of love
Just a girl with a ukulele
[Verse 7]
Come to me (Come to her)
[Verse 8]
My sweet one, and be still
[Verse 9]
I'll grasp your tail, then stroke each tender gill
My sweet prince
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a
Makihiki malahini who
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, ooh
Hawana waka, waka, waka, niki pu, pu, pu
[Verse 10]
Now, this is where we lean into the whole Kabuki thing!
[Verse 11]
The clouds turned gray
And the big sky cried
And the ocean had a fit
[Verse 12]
Ryan, where's my ocean?
[Verse 13]
Then the wind went whoosh
And thunder cracked
And mighty Mount Fufu spit
[Verse 14]
Mighty Mount Fufu, spit!
[Verse 15]
T-T-T-Tiki, T-Tiki
Wanna speaky, speaky, speaky
With the mighty spirit Fufu
T-T-T-Tiki, T-Tiki
Wanna speaky, speaky, speaky
[Verse 16]
The words (Word!) I will not mince
Please make a man of my fresh fish prince
[Verse 17]
This is real fish talk, no lie
[Verse 18]
And then the fish turns into a gorgeous prince and sings
[Verse 19]
I'm Prince Humuhumunukunukuapua'a
Makihiki malahini who
[Verse 20]
With me!
[Verse 21]
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, ooh
Hawana waka, waka, waka, niki pu, pu, pu
[Verse 22]
Everybody!
[Verse 23]
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a
Makihiki malahini who
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, ooh
Hawana waka, waka, waka, niki pu, pu, pu
Waka, waka, waka, niki pu, pu, pu
Waka, waka, waka, niki pu, pu, pu
