Luau Lyrics by Drive Like Jehu

Yank Crime

1994

[Verse 1]
Failures in outer space, failures and crimes
Let's get something straight: it's not for mine, mine, mine, mine
Before you were born, after you die
Failures in outer space, failures and crimes
[Verse 2]
It's in the water, it's in the earth
It's in the unit to measure the curse
Length, depth, whatever it's worth
It's in the unit to measure the curse
[Refrain]
It's in the setup, yeah, it's built-in
Whatever the get up, yeah, it's built-in
[Verse 3]
Wait for the rub-out, wait for the purge
Wipe the last haole the fuck off our turf!
Forget what you thought! Forget what you heard!
Wipe the last haole the fuck off our turf!
[Chorus]
Aloha, aloha! Suit up!
Luau, luau! Luau, luau!
Aloha, aloha! Suit up!
Luau, luau! Luau, luau!
Aloha, aloha! Suit up!
Luau, luau! Luau, luau!
Aloha
Suit up!
[Verse 4]
Wait til the rub-out, wait for the purge
Forget what you thought! Forget what you heard!
Wipe the last haole the fuck off our turf!
Forget what you thought! Forget what you heard!
[Refrain]
It's in the setup, yeah, it's built in
Whatever the get up, yeah, it's built in
[Verse 5]
Kill all the tourists and we'll all sleep sound
Cash-in their fillings and blow it in town, yeah
We'll blow it on rifles, we'll blow it on drinks
Head for the corner, head for the sink
[Chorus]
Aloha, aloha! Suit up!
Luau, luau! Luau, luau!
Aloha, aloha! Suit up!
Luau, luau! Luau, luau!
Aloha, aloha! Suit up!
Luau, luau! Luau, luau!
Aloha
Suit up!
[Instrumental]
