Description
Here, everything revolves around one simple pleasure - escaping from the hustle and bustle and dissolving into a lazy paradise where the sun generously spreads its light, the sand sticks to your feet, and Hawaiian melodies hum softly in your ear. It seems like a typical story about a “dream vacation,” but with its own brand of humor: friendly revelry, fake singing “on the fly,” and sudden laughter instead of a pretentious climax.
And in the end, it's not about escaping somewhere to the tropics, but about a state in which everything becomes easy and fun. It's as if for a second you allowed yourself not to keep a straight face and just smile, even if at that moment there is absolutely nothing to explain.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Going back to Honolulu just to get that, that Maui Wowie, that Maui Wowie.
Going back to Honolulu just to get that, that Maui Wowie, that Maui Wowie.
That I'm so high. That I'm so high. That I'm so high. That I'm so high.
That I'm so high. That I'm so high. That I'm so high. That
I'm so high. Yeah, back up in the mix. Aloha, nigga Cudi looking for a fix.
Got enough dough just to take a trip to get a little pinch of the Maui Wowie.
Aw man, here we go again. If you ever get a chance, smoke it with a friend.
Me and Pat on a mission to get lifted like John Legend and shit. Get lifted.
Let's get lifted.
What you gonna cop? Maybe a dub, maybe a zone.
No matter what you cop, you should smoke it 'til it's gone.
Walking on the beach with the sand between your feet and all the Hawaiian girls singing to the beat. Hey, what it do, boo?
You smoke good? Yeah, me too.
Living in paradise all through the night and even in the day, smoke 'til I can't see. What can I say? Nothing like this in the world, homie.
Make you feel great, you forget you in the States.
Might relocate so you can smoke all the Maui Wowie you can take, like.
Going back to Honolulu just to get that, that Maui Wowie, that Maui Wowie.
Going back to Honolulu just to get that, that Maui Wowie, that Maui Wowie.
That I'm so high. That I'm so high. That I'm so high. That I'm so high.
That I'm so high. That I'm so high. That I'm so high. That I'm so high.
I, I, I know, I know, I know, I really need to go, go, go, go, go, go. Really need to go, go. Really need to go, go, go, man.
I need Maui Wowie. I smoke that Maui Wowie. I need Maui Wowie. I smoke that Maui
Wowie. I know, I know, I know, you really need to go, go.
Really need to go, go, go, man. I need Maui Wowie. I smoke that Maui Wowie.
