 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Somewhere on a South Pacific island 
Sits a young man staring at the surf. 
His native girlfriend died a death quite violent 
A tribal sacrifice made to the earth. 

She was brown, her hair was black, her eyes were blue. 
A chief's daughter, Leilani was her name. 
She and her young man made a handsome two
But lava tore them both apart again. 

Leilani, don't go to the volcano (he'd say). 
They were saving for a little hut, 
She collected sea-shells every day.
Everynight they'd share a cigarette
But The ancient, angry gods got in the way. 

Leilani, don't go to the volcano (he'd plead). 

Katoomba, Hey! Macumbah, Ho! 
Umgawah! Hey! Ho! Hey-eh! Ah... 
Leilani - crula-bula-ulladulla-wok-a-tai 
Aba-laba-laba, Hut! 

Leilani-nevageta-huta-tera-cota-tile 
Aba-laba-laba Hut! 
Umgawah!

Still the young man sits upon the beach, 
He's staring misty-eyed out into space. 
He's thinking about his girlfriend (of late, deceased), 
At least her death had purpose; now his life is a waste! 
Leilani, don't go to the volcano (he'd beg her)
