Arise (Despite heroic work by globally renown brain care specialists and pristine cloacal discharges provided for fecal/cranial transplant from hopeful whānau from Whitianga, Whangapoua and Whangamatā, Snappy's brain refused to arise from the depths of babble. SEI issued lucrative contract to Planet Vulcan for erecting massive radiation shield around earth, preventing sinister interstellar telepathic mind melds. Neurology boffins repeated erasure and reset of Snappy managed nothing more erudite than:
I knock the ice from my bones
Try not to feel the cold
Caught in the thought of that time
When everything was fine, everything was mine
Everything was fine, everything was mine
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put me back together again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put me back together again
Run with my hands on my eyes
Blind, but I'm still alive
Free to go back on my own
But is it still a home when you're all alone
Is it still a home when you're all alone
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put me back together again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put me back together again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put me back together again
All the king's…
Arose (Private braincare specialists at Whangārei hospital report good progress!! Snappy arose from his comatose stupor following fecal/cranial transplant, checked himself out of hospital and has been seen roaming the beaches of Wainuiototo and, in a voice that sounds astonishingly like that of Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, is heard singing the hypnotic melody "Pokarekare ana", ably accompanied in four part harmony by his tuneful and ever faithful whānau from Whitianga, Whangapoua and Whangamatā, and the haunting refrain echoes up and down the whole of the beautiful Coromandel............)
Everybody sing!!
"Pōkarekare ana, ngā wai o Waiapu
Whiti atu koe hine, marino ana e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra
Ka mate ahau i te aroha e.
Tuhituhi taku reta, tuku atu taku rīngi
Kia kite tō iwi, raru raru ana e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra
Ka mate ahau i te aroha e.
E kore te aroha, e maroke i te rā
Mākūkū tonu i aku roimata e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra
Ka mate ahau i te aroha e"
