When is it time to stop?
When you’re enjoying it with all you got?
Another one will be just fine
I’m feeling the buzz
I’m feeling fly
Don’t need to stop
I’ve got moderation on lock
I know i’m fine until
I can’t walk a straight line no more
My oh me
I’ve lost my bearings
May have had one too many berries
I’m spinning them lines now
I find i’m a little blind now
Another one bites the dust she said
But i’m fine, fine, fine.
Watch me and then you’ll see
Temptation got the best of me
Kei hea āku parihau?
Kei hea tāku rākau?
Ka kimihia kimihia tāku kōhanga
Karangaranga mai āku whanaunga!
Kua taka tāku mata, kāhore te kapa
i te kainga o tāku miro whakamutunga
kua tae ki te toi o tāku taura
rāranga mai he taura hou hei piki mōku
Kererū - a translation
Where are my wings?
Where is my tree?
Where is my nest
call out, my family!
My face has dropped - not the penny unfortunately
On the last berry I ate
I’m at the end of my rope
Make me a new rope so I can climb back up
(the penny is a reference to “when the penny drops”, which in Māori is, “Kua taka te kapa”)
