We have played this song a lot this week, and I just had to work this out:

1 x 12 verses = 12 mynah birds
2 x 11 verses = 22 coconuts
3 x 10 verses = 30 dried squid
4 x 9 verses = 36 flower lei
5 x 8 verses = 40 big fat pigs
6 x 7 verses = 42 hula lessons
7 x 6 verses = 42 opai swimming
8 x 5 verses = 40 'ukulele
9 x 4 verses = 36 pounds of poi
10 x 3 verses = 30 cans of beer
11 x 2 verses = 22 missionaries
12 x 1 verse = 12 televisions

John Keawe says he never liked the verse about missionaries, so when he sings it
he just adds 11 more cans of beer. You do the math...

Aloha, and Merry Christmas from Kona

And of course, this comes around in the email every year:

The Night Before Christmas, In Hawaii

Was da night bafo' Christmas, and all ova' da place,
Not even da geckos was showin' their face.

Da stockings was hangin' on top da TV
('Cause de no mo' fireplace in Hawai'i )

Da kids stay all crashed, ‘an my old man was too.
They leave all da work for da kine you-know-who.

So me, I stay pickin' up alla their toys,
When - boom! - outside, get one great big noise!

I run to da window, I open 'em up,
I stick out my head and I yell, "Eh! Brah, 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 reindeers in my yard!
And reindeers not housebroken, you know, as' why hard!

But its Christmas, ok, so I cut 'em some slack.
Plus, had uku pile presents pokin' outta his sack!

So I wait 'till he pau tie up his reindeer,
Then I yell out da window, "Huui! Brah, ova hea!"

An' I tell 'em first thing, when I open da door,
"Eh, hemo your shoes! You going dirty my floor!"

He take off his boots, say, "You know who I am?"
I go, "Ho! From the smell, must be Mr. Toe Jam!"


He make mempachi eyes and he go, "Ho, ho, ho!"
By now, I stay thinking this guy kinda slow!

He look like my Tutu, but little less weight,
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 of da tree.

I tell 'em, "Eh, brah, no need make li'dat,
And watch where you step! You going ma-ke da cat!"

Then, out from his bag, he pull one brand new computah,
Choke video games, and one motorized scootah!

He try for fill up da Christmas socks too,
But had so much pukas, all da stuff went fall troo.

When he pau, I tell 'em, "Eh Santa, try wait!
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, "Hey Santa, Mele Kalikimaka!"

When he hear that, he stop...and I telling you true,
He go, "Garans ball-barans! Merry Christmas to you!"
