[Verse 1]
I ate it and at once my eyes could see you
No sooner had I ooped it down
I felt so far off from the ground I stood on
My legs they seemed to me like high-rise buildings
My head was high up in the sky
My skin, the sun began to fry like bacon
[Bridge 1]
And then somebody old appeared and asked had I come far
And hadn't they just seen me up on Haleakala
Well, I kept on body surfing to pretend I hadn't heard
There was someone there beside me, swimming like Richard III
And I'm still smiling (I'm still smiling)
[Instrumental Verse]
[Bridge 2]
Seven naked native girls swam seven sacred pools
Lone ranger smoking doobies said you're breaking all the rules
You'd better get your clothes on or else there'll be a row
If it wasn't for my sunstroke I would take you on right now
And I'm still smiling
[Verse 2]
I fell in love with my soft-hearted Hana
She entered right in through my heart
And now although we're miles apart, I still feel her
She lives beneath the crater in the meadow
She grows among the fruit and grain
You can meet her after heavy rain has fallen
