 Everybody on your knees
 "It's God" say the "Polynesse"
 They worship me mistakenly
 I say "Tiki, who was he?"
 Trader Vic at Hinky Dink's
 He liked sex and he liked to drink
 Built a temple to have fun
 Huri Popo everyone
 Aku-Aku, Mai-tai
 Tonight's the night it'll be just fine
 Gombay Smash or Kapu-Kai
 Can't be bothered with the 9 to 5
 Gotta get down at the coconut lounge tonight
 Island people are a generous bunch
 Offering drinks and buffet lunch
 No missionary could ever see
 Their downfall in Tahiti
 Could this be paradise?
 Hula skirts are really nice
 Sweet and fruity drinks with ice
 If I die this would suffice

Everybody on your knees
"It's God" say the "Polynesse" [Sic]
They worship me mistakenly
I say "Tiki, who was he?"
Trader Vic at Hinky Dink's
He liked sex and he liked to drink
Built a temple to have fun
Huri Popo everyone

Aku-Aku, Mai-tai
Tonight's the night it'll be just fine
Gombay Smash or Kapu-Kai

Gotta get down at the coconut lounge tonight

Island people are a generous bunch
Offering drinks and buffet lunch
No missionary could ever see
Their downfall in Tahiti
Could this be paradise?
Hula skirts are really nice
Sweet and fruity drinks with ice
If I die this would suffice
