==Lyrics==
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
