Lyrics
Chorus:
I’m down in Honolulu looking them over
I’m down in Honolulu living in clover
Try and guess the way they dress
No matter what you think it is, it’s even less
Their language is hard to understand
Because it’s so tricky
I’ve got them teaching me to say “wicky wicky”
I don’t know what it means
But it’s the best that ever was
And if it means just what I think it does
I’ll be in Honolulu looking them over
For a long, long time
