RAYMOND KOMIS GIRANA
Sound the panpipe
To the beat of the garamut
Sway to and fro
The Solomon dance
Sound the panpipe
In the Tsuhana
Chips (chiefs) and fork (pork)
Inherent right and deserved name
Sound the panpipe
Masters first ladies wait
Youth all the necessities
A basket for the big man
Sound the panpipe
Expand the queue
Free rice and tea all night
A buai skin for the sorcerer
Sound the panpipe
In the haus krai
House all those in black
Flood the tears of sorrow
Sound the panpipe
All notes in knots
Count the bride price
Get that woman to work
Sound the panpipe
Get all the Tambus in
Write out the taboos
Who to dare?
Sound the panpipe
Opportunists to dance
An abuse of labour
Pasin at its best
Sound the panpipe
Dance to Solomon dance
Kaukau for money
Money for kaikai
Sound the panpipe
Cheer all the chairs
Despite moral mishaps
Good or bad, cash counts
Sound the panpipe
Assemble the archers
Table a compensation unit
Eye for an eye last resort
Sound the panpipe
Walk the streets
See the opulence of the rich
The utter destitution of the poor
Sound the panpipe
Democracy down the drain
In six pocketed shorts
To an empire of companies
Sound the panpipe
Check the blind spot
Change the words
Change world
Sound the panpipe
Claim the dance
Have a good chat
Ask which way
