Written and composed by Paul Lee, celebrating Auckland city as the largest polynesian city in the world. Colorful, reggae, city of sails. Title track from the South Pacific Sunshine album.
lyrics
Well you know if there's smoke
There may be flames
Of creativity, flaring up again
Like a beautiful flower
sweet as spring rain.
When I'm lost in the smog
Of rush hour traffic jams
So late for work
I have to make other plans
Now I'm cruising
Up Queen street at midnight
With the ravers I'm raging
All through club night.
Until that South Pacific Sunshine's
Coming out again...
We are the biggest Polynesian city
City of sails one million strong
The rainbow tribe of the South Pacific
We are getting along
And all we want to do is
Sing you some love songs
Some groovy love songs.
