THANK YOU FOR THE DAYS MOANA MASHUP Thank you for the days Woke up on a groovy Tuesday, I’ve been staring at the edge of the water Those endless days those sacred days you gave me Everything is not the same, long as I can remember, I’m thinking of the days Woke up on a groovy Tuesday, never really knowing why. I won’t forget a single day believe me, Think I’ll even change my name, I wish I could be the perfect daughter, I bless the light Tuesday’s groovy, Tuesday’s groovy, but I come back to the water I bless the light that lights on you believe me, Now I know that nothing lasts, no matter how hard I try. Days I’ll remember all my life. Every turn I take, every trail I track, Days when you can’t see wrong from right Now it’s already Wednesday, Half the week is gone, Every path I make, every road leads back You took my life Yet another Wednesday of things I haven’t done. to the place I know where I cannot go, But then I knew that very soon you’d leave me. The week flies by like an aeroplane where I long to be. But it’s alright. that’s got no destination. See the line where the sky meets the sea, it calls me, Now I’m not frightened of this world believe me And now it’s already Wednesday How did three days and no one knows how far it goes, get wasted? If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me, On Mondays I never go to work, one day I’ll know. On Tuesdays I stay in bed, Throw me tomorrow, If I go there’s just no telling how far I’ll go. On Wednesdays I never feel inclined, Now that I’ve really got a chance, Work is the last thing on my mind, Throw me tomorrow, I know everybody on this island On Thursdays it’s a holiday, Everything’s falling into place, seems so happy on this island, And Fridays I detest, Throw me tomorrow, Everything is by design. Oh it’s much too late on a Saturday, Seeing my past to let it go I know everybody on this island and Sunday’s the day of rest. Throw me tomorrow, has a role on this island Only for you I don’t regret so maybe I can roll with mine. I know a girl from a lonely street, That I was Thursday’s Child I can lead with pride I can make us strong, Cold as ice cream but still as sweet, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday born I’ll be satisfied if I play along, Dry your eyes Sunday Girl. I was Thursday’s Child but the voice inside sings a different song, Hey I saw your guy with a different girl, what is wrong with me? Looks like he’s in another world. I don’t care if Mondays’ blue, See the light as it shines on the sea: it’s blinding, Run and hide Sunday girl. Tuesday’s grey and Wednesday too, but no one knows how deep it goes, Thursday I don’t care about you, It’s Friday I’m in love. And it seems like it’s calling out to me, so come find me, Hurry up, hurry up and wait, Monday you can fall apart. and let me know. I stay away all weekend, still I wait, Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart, What’s beyond that line? will I cross that line? I got the blues, Please come see Oh Thursday doesn’t even start, It’s Friday I’m in love. What your loving means to me Saturday wait! Aue, aue! Nuku i mua, Sunday always comes too late, Te mamulele e tataki e. She can’t catch up with the working crowd. Friday never hesitate, Aue, aue, Te fenua, te malie, The weekend mood and she’s feeling proud, I don’t care if Monday’s black Nae ko hakilia kaiga e. Run and hide Sunday girl. Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack, Thursday never looking back We read the wind and the sky, when the sun is high. I Have to catch an early train, Got to be at work by It’s Friday I’m in love.

FIGHT SONG (Chorus Only) This is my fight song, ‘Take back my life’ song, ‘Prove I’m alright’ song, My power’s turned on, Starting right now I’ll be strong, I’ll play my fight song, And I don’t really care if no body else believes ‘ ‘Cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me. A LITTLE CAN CHANGE OUR WORLD AN AMERICAN FOLK ODYSSEY What will you say when the harvest fails again, Hey oh Lai lai loylai, Hey oh lai la loy Because we have no rain; Hey leyla loi la loyla, Hey oh Lai la loy. people will starve? Hey oh Lai lai loylai, Hey oh lai la loy What will you say when another creature dies, Hey leyla loi la loyla, Hey oh Lai la loy. Right before our eyes, habitats lost? Tell me why you didn’t do your part? I’ll sing you a song, a good song of the sea, Tell me why you thought you couldn’t help? To me! Way Hey! Blow the man down, Tell me why it didn’t seem worth trying at all? I trust that you’ll join in the chorus with me, Because “sorry” won’t be enough. Give me some time to blow the man down. Blow the man down, bullies blow the man down, What will you say when pollution finds its way To me, Way Hey! Blow the man down, into our waterways; Blow him right back boys to Liverpool Town, Fish start to die? Give me some time to blow the man down. What will you say when the ice caps melt each year Islands disappear, people displaced? ‘Tis the gift to be simple, ’tis the gift to be free, ’Tis the gift to come down where you ought to be, Tell me why you didn’t do your part? We didn’t know we had a part And when we find ourselves in the place just right, Tell me why you thought you couldn’t help? No one told us where to start ‘Twill be in the valley of love and delight. Tell me why it didn’t seem worth trying at all? When true simplicity is gained, Because “sorry” won’t be enough. Because “sorry” won’t be enough. To bow and to bend, We shan’t be ashamed, To turn, turn will be our delight, The future’s forever If we pull together, Till by turning turning we come round right. And do what we can today. If we can do something It’s better than nothing. I am a poor wayfaring stranger, A little can change, our world! travelling through this world alone. There’s no sickness toil or danger, What will you say when there’s rubbish everywhere, In this fair land to which I go And methane fills the air, landfills are full? I’m going home to see my mother, What will you say when we find it hard to see, I’m going home no more to roam Smog lies globally, we struggle to breathe? I’m just going over Jordan, I’m just going over Home. The future’s forever If we pull together, And do what we can today. Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you, If we can do something It’s better than nothing.
