Party in the AUK [AUcKland New Zealand's official music video parody] (but not really) by AmeriKiwi

CLICK HERE to see lyrics and explanations to the New Zealand references.

Explanations for Americans and others:
Air NZ-
"z's" are pronounced "zed" instead of "zee" in NZ

Flash-
something posh or fancy or cool or flashy

American Flag Pants-
these pants are extreme even for the states, but playing to the nz stereotype that all Americans are extremely patriotic.

Germaine and Brett-
referencing a TV show about two NZers called Flight of the Conchords.

Hiace-
a common Toyota van over here

1 motorway-
the major freeway in Auckland which goes vertically through pretty much the whole country

Toast n marmite-
marmite is a strong salty savory NZ spread that goes on toast

Black Seeds-
a laidback funky reggae sort of NZ band

Putting your brows up-
signifies you agree without having to say anything, like saying "yeah, yeah" or "totally"

Sheep-
approx. 38 million sheep in NZ, you don't see many directly in the city, but they're definitely around.

Bros-
your mates/friends/the guys you hangout with

Text 021-
the first 3 digits of cell phone/mobile numbers for Vodafone customers (Vodafone's a major NZ provider)

Kiwi-

AUK-
an abbreviation for Auckland although the most common abbreviation would be AKL

Dane Rumble-

Fish n chips-
a classic NZ meal that is tasty but not the healthiest

Out the south-
South Auckland among other stereotypes simply has a lot of good fish n chips shops.

Wendys-
the Wendys fast food branch is in very few to no other places in NZ outside Auckland city

Stubbies-
short shorts worn for comfort, work, or sporting events

Triple 1-
instead of calling 911 emergency in the USA you dial 111 in NZ

Meat Pie-
a small pie with a variety of gravy, sauces and meat in it

The Oz/Nz Flag switch-
the NZ flag replaced the Australian flag which look very similar. Outsiders will sometimes lump the countries together, although the joke is that NZ'ers don't like being mistaken for their counterpart.

Feelers-
classic NZ band whose songs are common to most Kiwis

Haka-
the end group dance is a very poor version a tribal war dance of the native Maoris and which the All Blacks rugby team perform before each match

Pineapple Lumps-
A chocolate candy with a pineapple flavored center. The NZ ad a few years back claimed this was God's gift to NZ.

L&P-
Lemon and Paeroa is an original NZ soft drink (NZ calls them fizzy drinks) Their slogan is "World Famous in New Zealand since ages ago." Its kind of a cross between sprite and ginger ale.

Piha Beach-
One of the most famous and dangerous Auckland beaches.


Party in the AUK Lyrics:
I hopped off the plane at Air NZ
with a smile and my flash new pants
welcome to the land of Germaine and Brett
Whoa, am I gonna fit in?

Jumped in the back,
Of The Hiace it seats 9
Look to my right, there's the 1 motorway sign
This is all so crazy
Everybody seems so laidback

My buddy's hurlin and I'm feelin kinda home sick
Toast n marmite make me nervous,
That's when the speed bump bump turned on the radio
and the Black Seeds song was on
and the Black Seeds song was on
and the Black Seeds song was on

CHORUS:
So I put my brows up
They're playing my song,
As the cute girls looked away
While I was Noddin' my head like yeah
Moving those sheep like yeah,
And I text my bros up,
On 021
Even though I'm not quite kiwi
Yeah, It's a party in the AUK
Yeah, It's a party in the AUK

Went to the club, Dane Rumble's in
Everybody's lookin at him now
but whose that girl with fish n chips
She's gotta be from out the south

The bros chimed lets go into wendys
That's so much easier than the female species
but all I'm seein are the stubbies
Someone call triple 1 please
My buddy's hurlin and I'm feelin kinda home sick
Too much meat pie and I'm nervous
That's when the D.J. dropped my favorite tune
Feelers song came on
And a feelers song came on
a feelers song came on

BRIDGE:
Feel like hoppin' on a flight (on a flight)
Back to my hometown tonight (town tonight)
Something stops me everytime (everytime)
The radio plays my song and I feel alright!
