(Spoken) Years ago, Giuseppi Garibaldi came from the sunny shores of Italy to the golden beach of Waikiki.
He opened a spaghetti house complete with antipasto and hula shows. One night, a group of sailors of the
Italian Navy came to Giuseppi's spaghetti house and because of the difference in customs, here's the friendly
warning that Giuseppi sang:
(Sung) Hey, whena you come to Waikiki for pasta fasoula
You canna watcha the nice-a girl shake-a da hula
Oh, you gonna tease 'em, you gonna please 'em, you gonna squeeze 'em
But pleeza no peencha da hula girls
When-a da naughty hips-a shake-a rockin' an rollin'
Ana you pizza eyes pop like a pistol-a
You gonna squeeze-a rosa mia mama mia
But pleeza no peencha da hula girls
In sunny Italy it is-a da custom
But here in Waikiki you getta da bust 'em
So listen you guys doncha get wise is-a not-a nice to
Peencha da merchandise
When-a dey place around-a you neck a lei-a carnation
It's a time-a you tell-a you wife hey take a vacation
It's a bella when-a you fella ring-a da bell-a
But pleeza no peencha da hula girls
