Versuri Peter Cape – Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauatamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu lyrics

Maori joker on a hilltop, playing a flute,
Cooler than Goodman – boy he was beaut!
And the thought that he thought in between each toot was:
Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauatamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu!

Soon the Maori shielas began to gather around,
Hitch up the piu-piu and sit on the ground
„Man”, they say, „You send me – what’s that new new sound?” and he says:
Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauatamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu!

Soon these Maori jokers meet another race:
Along comes the Pakeha with his whitewashed face.
„Hey”, they say to the Maori, „What do you call this place?” and he says:
Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauatamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu!

Now I farm a Station up in South Hawke’s Bay.
You’re tired out with mustering every day,
But never get as tired as I do when I say:
Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauatamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu!

What was that, mate?
Oh, Crikey!
Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauatamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu!
