Duke Kahanamoku

He ain’t no squirt in a Black Flag shirt
But he’s number one in Waikiki
He won’t smoke crack behind your back
While he’s hanging from a coconut tree
He can shoot the curl all around the world
He’s cooler than you and me Duke Duke Duke Kahanamoku
It ain’t the waves you catch
It ain’t the drugs you do You’ll never be as cool as Duke Kahanamoku
Some people say Dick Dale’s just the coolest dude
(He even take karate lesson — with Elvis too)
He can shoot the curl around the world
He’s cooler than you and me We’re getting lots of girls — at least we sure hope so
(It's hard to tell at times down in old Rio)
He can shoot the curl all around the world
He’s cooler than you and me
