The Living End - Leilani lyrics

Somewhere on a South Pacific island Sits a young man staring at the surf His native girlfriend died a d**h quite violent A tribal sacrifice made to the earth She was brown, her hair was black, her eyes were blue A chief's daughter, Leilani was her name She and her young man made a handsome two But lava tore them both apart again Leilani, don't go to the volcano, he'd say Please don't go to the volcano They were saving for a little hut She collected sea-shells every day Every night they'd share a cigarette But the ancient, angry gods got in the way Leilani, don't go to the volcano, he'd plead Please don't go, I'll miss you so Katoomba, Hey! Macumbah, Ho! Umgawah! Hey! Ho! Hey-eh! Ah... Leilani - crula-bula-ulladulla-wok-a-tai Aba-laba-laba, Hut! Leilani-nevageta-huta-tera-cota-tile Aba-laba-laba Hut! Umgawah!!! Still the young man sits upon the beach He's staring misty-eyed out into space He's thinking about his girlfriend of late, deceased At least her d**h had purpose; his life is a waste! Leilani, don't go to the volcano, he said Please don't go, I'll miss you so. He said Please don't go, I love you, I love you so Please don't go
