about

Vinaka Bula means "Thank You Much" in Fijian. At least I think it does...

lyrics

You see, life is full of choices
And some of them are important

You think you know what you're here to do
Here's this one who cares for you
You're going to make her dreams come true

You think you get to drive the car
But you really couldn't be more far
From knowing where this all is going
You'll be sending

22 of your true loves
Feral cats to Fiji
Money's what your saving up and
Money makes it easy
To take them to a big airline and
Quarantine them 2 at a time and
Life is full of choices...

You've never met someone like her
You'll follow her to the ends of the earth
For whatever that's worth

And no-one had the heart to say
That all your dreams would fly away
Sleeping kitties in the cargo bay

22 of your true loves
Feral cats to Fiji
Money's what your saving up and
Money makes it easy
To take them to a big airline and
Quarantine them 2 at a time and
Life is full of choices...

A year since this all went down
They say you've limped back into town
And don't want to talk about it
Your heart is broken and your back is sore
We can rebuild you, but it will cost you much more
more than it costs to send

22 of your true loves
Feral cats to Fiji
Money's what your saving up and
Money makes it easy
To take them to a big airline and
Quarantine them 2 at a time
The astonished natives stand and blink
“Vinaka Bula for the cats, we think...” and
Life is full of choices
And some of them are important.
