A Rapa Nui Fantasy

lyrics

Verse
He ́s got no ahu, he ́s got no place to be,
doomed to stay at rano raraku.
I ́d like to give him a pukao and the name of an ariki, for me he ́s worth it to be a Superstar of stone.
The time has come to reveal his face,
and show the world the person that I praise.

Chorus
Just put your hands on my MOAI
do you feel the mana entering your heart? Just put your hands on my MOAI
and believe me he will never break apart.

Verse
There were countless quite hard windy nights countless strikes on dark cold stone,
my aching battered hands stroking his face at the end it was a reasonable price to pay. The time has come to reveal his face
to show the world the person that I praise.
