It was the year 1492
Columbus sailed the ocean blue
But the Indians had a tail to tell
About the big kauhuna big wave well
It comes every 45 years
Get a big board its coming this summer
It comes in the middle of the night
The water flat the moonlight right
Well the mountain men have a tale to tell
Hillbilly surfers on logs from hell
Coming down the mountains on the river swells
For the big kauhuna big wave well
I tried to build a ramp last night
My skateboard broke but that's all right
I gotta big stick for the big kauhuna
I gotta get laid then catch this wave
Skate party tonight
I'm not gonna work or think this summer
I gotta be ready to catch this wave
Up with the sun it won't be long
The founding fathers have a tail to tell
About this thing called god this wave from hell
Catch it in the still moonlight
If you catch it right you can ride it all night
This wave bounces all around the world
Catch it going out ride it to New Zealand
