Whether your're in LA
So yeah we're back in LA
Whether your're in New York
Where were on your block
Whether your in the U.K.,
Where the sky is dark,
And the grass is kinda green
You know like central park

Still my favourite place in the whole wide world
I'ts got to be in the middle of the ocean floor
I see you walking on the ocean paradise on earth

The fiftieth state, why?
Hawaii-EH!-OOohhoohhohh

OoOoooO Oh oh oh!
I wanna live in somewhere different.
oh oh oh
A nuclear disaster might be on our way
but I don't care I'm in the USA

Whether we're drunk or stoned
or we're sober and old
If I'm with you I'm a happy man.
If you could sit there cold
While you count your gold
And your problem is you can't
Find your remote control.

Say, my favourite person in this whole wide world
is a woman who could understand every word
and when she speaks to me she makes me see the world
as my favorite place...

Hawaii-EH!-OOohhoohhohh
We got it made
ohhhh
yes I know
Can we go
by plane or boat
ohhhhhh

Whether you take it slow or you let me go
Whether you tell me somethin that I did not know
Whether your neat and polite or you scream and fight
Whether you keep something from me that i would not like.

Still my favourite attitude in this world so far
Is the friendly spirit of an Islander
I like the way folks are in this most special place
I don't care what happens I'm taking a plane

Hawaii Ha Aw Wa I E!!
Hawaii Ha Aw Wa I E!!
I said
Hawaii Ha Aw Wa I E!!
I said
Hawaii Ha Oh Aw I E!!
I said
Hawaii Ha Ow Wa I E!!

Kauai, oh why, I'm gonna die in Lanai,
Maui or The Big Island, cause they know why.

Hawaii Ha Aw Wa I E!!
Ooo wa Ah Ie
ah we Ei Wo Ah E

oooooOHhhhhhhhh ooo wowww
I wanna be with something different.
oh let me in
cut off from malaysia
back in who knows when
oh we got kinda lost
but my god what a place
i profess
airforce jets
cannot take
away my soul

  • 0:06 he made his rockstar-at-stage voice haha i don't think the crowd understood it was a joke, he gives up after his own laugh.

  • So talented!!;))

  • Holly CRAP! THEY ARE AMAZING! 

  • @jimmysyndrome maybe thats why its a B-side and not their album leading single... duh... sometimes when you write a song it sounds like one of your favourite bands, does that mean the song should be ditched? no, its a B-side

  • @jimmysyndrome your right about the rip off. However on a better note. I have just discovered 'The Clean' what a band! Happy Christmas.

  • The verse is a shameless rip-off of Tally Ho by The Clean, one of the great Flying Nun bands of the 1980s. The only original thing about this song is how they've somehow made it sound bland and heartless.

  • its kind of weird that he remember the entire lyrics XD

  • JULIAN IS SOOO FREAKING HOT!

  • "Welcome, welcome to Storytellers"

    OH GOD, I feel like he's gonna be like, "take my hand" and we'll transport to Narnia. I LOVE EHTTTT.

    & Don't be ashamed of your b-sides, Julian! The Strokes b-sides are freaking AWESOME. Man, THIS was when MTV used to show real music. "Whatever happened"? I wish they'd play this Storytellers on TV, "tell us your story, I know you're not boring".

  • 0:19 See how the camera couldn't handle his stare?...It actually had to turn away man, what the fuck
