I hopped off the plane at FUN And I start saying Amen Welcome to the land of global warming Am I gonna drown in?
Jumped in the boat Here I am for the first time Looked to my right and i see the Funafuti sign This is all so crazy Everybody wearing those daisies
The tide is turning and I'm feeling kind of seasick Too much heat and I'm nervous That's when the banana seller turned on the radio And the Velorium song was on
So I put my hands up, They're drowing my island, The refugees run away Getting into the boat like yeah, Praying to god like yeaah, So I put my hands up They're drowing my island Sinking in the sea so blueee yeah It's a party in Tuvalu
Get to the forest in our vine Everybody's looking at us now Like "what's that band that's rockin' it? They gotta be from outta town."
So good with tuvaluans all around me It's definitely a funafutian party Cause all I see are palmettos We'll never forget your memos
The tide is turning and I'm feeling kind of seasick Too much heat and I'm nervous That's when a banana fall from where it belongs And the Velorium song was on
We'll miss hopping on a vine Back to our hometown tonight Where fans stop us everytime And bananas aren't considered so divine
