Pass the beef stew
Pass around the poi
Makes for a full stomach

Brings delight to the eyes
Pass the beef stew
Pass the Surgeon fish
Makes for a big stomach

Makes for a big stomach

Bring the seaweed here
Pass around the poi
Pass around the seaweed
Makes for a big stomach

Pass the beef stew
Pass around the poi
Makes for a big stomach
