Twas the Night Before Christmas - Hawaiian Pidgin Style Was da night bafo' Christmas And all ova' da place Not even the geckos was showin' their face. Da stocking was hangin' on top da TV ('Cause no mo' fireplace in Hawai'i) Da kids stay all crashed, my old man too. They leave all the work you you-know-who. So me, I stay pickin' up all their toys, When - boom!- outside get only big noise! I run to da window, I open 'em up I stick out my head and I yell "Eh! Whassup?" And then, I no can ba-lieve what I seen! Was so unreal, you know what I mean? This fat haole guy get his reindeer in my yard! And reindeers not housebroken, you know, as' why hard! But nemmind, this Christmas, so I cut 'em some slack, (never mind) Plus, had uku pile presents pokin' ooutta his sack! (great big) So I wait till he pau tie up his reindeer, (done) Then I yell out da window, "Huui! Brah, ova hea! (Hey you) An' I tell 'em first thing, when I open da door, "Eh, hemo your shoes! You going dirty my floor!" (take off) He take off his boots, he tell, "You know who I am?" I go, "Ho! From the smell, you must be Mr. Toe Jam!" He make mempachi eyes and he go, "Ho, ho, ho!" (dazed look) By now, I stay thinking this guy kinda slow! He look like my Tutu, but little less weight, (grandma) And his beard stay so white, mo' white than shark bait! He stay all in red, specially his nose, And get reindeer spit on top his nice clothes! But him, he no care; he just smile at me, And he start fo' put presents unda-neath da tree. I tell 'em, "Eh, brah, no need make li'dat (like that) And watch where you step! You going ma-ke da cat!" (kill) Then, out from his bag, he pull one brand new computah, Choke video games, and one motorized scootah! (alot) He try for fill up da Christmas socks too, But had so much pukas, all da stuff went fall troo. (holes) When he pau, I tell 'em, "Eh Santa, try wait! (done) I get plenty leftovahs, I go make you one plate!" But he nevah like hang, he had so much fo' do; Gotta make all them small kids' wishes come true. So I wave 'em goodbye, and I flash 'em da shaka, And I tell 'em, "Mele Kalikimaka!" When he hear that, he stop and I telling you true, He go, "Garans ball-barans! Merry Christmas to you!" (guaranteed)  Hawaiian Christmas: Jimmy Buffett Mele Kalikimaka
