Versuri Herbs – What's Be Happen? lyrics

Say you’re alright, brudda
Cause you’ve just bought a house
Come into it at eve
And in the morning you leave
Say you’re alright, brudda
Cause you’ve got hire purchase
No need – no need to pay
Just slave and slave and slave, yeah

What’s be happen when the children turn away?
And why for you stay when nothing remains?
And why for you laugh when I long for home?
Sing that song – (Talofa lava!) – that Samoan song
Sing that song – (Mālō e lelei kāinga!) – that Tongan song
Sing that song – (Kia ora!) – that Māori song

Say you’re alright, brudda
Once you catch a boat
And smoke big heaps, no worry
No worry about sleep
Say you’re alright, brudda
Cause a car is handy
While your island grows weak and abandoned
Abandoned and forsaken, yeah

Tau ma le ao pō lela mea
E tupu pe ʻau isi kamaiki
O le mea iti nuʻu fuʻe pe fai
O le ese mea ou tūtū
O le mea iti ati le pea
O mau faufau e lo ʻāiga
Usu lau pese – (Fā soifua!) – usu lau pese Sāmoa
Usu lau pese – (ʻOfa atu kia kimoutolu kotoa!) – usu lau pese Tonga
Usu lau pese – (Ko haere rā!) – usu lau pese Māori
