lyrics
Polynesian Love Fest
(M. Baltzer)
One day you said that you had a dream -
You had a dream we went vacation.
You told me that were on a plane.
You told me that we were in a plane crash -
Everyone’s OK!
There was a fire, but no one got burned.
We landed on a sandbar and we swam into shore.
When we reached land there were tourist attractions -
They were selling Polynesian curioso.
Then it was discovered that I’d been there before,
I knew all the people, and I liked them better when…
You forgot about them, but they remember you!
Nothing last forever - don’t let it make you blue!
Nothing last forever - there’s nothing you can do!
I decided it was time to go home,
To see my family and my distant relations.
I sat without a hat for too long.
I got a sunburn and I used all my lotion -
It was miserable!
There was a fire, but no nobody burned.
Ghost Crabs marching single file up from the shore...
For what happened there’s no explanation -
Jumped into the flames like they were Kamikaze.
In the morning only the ashes remained,
Until the wind came along and swept them away.
You forgot about them, but they remember you!
Nothing last forever - don’t let it make you blue!
Nothing last forever - there’s nothing you can do!
There was a fire, but no one got burned.
We landed on a sandbar and we swam into shore.
When we reached land there were tourist attractions -
They were selling Polynesian curioso.
You forgot about them, but they remember you!
Nothing last forever - don’t let it make you blue!
Nothing last forever - there’s nothing you can do!
