    Lyrics:
    Brother Pele's in the back
    Sweet Zina's in the front
    Cruisin' down the freeway in the hot, hot sun
    Suddenly red-blue lights flash us from behind
    Loud voice booming
    Please step out onto the line
    Pele preaches words of comfort
    Zina just hides her eyes
    Policeman taps his shades
    Is that a Chevy '69?
    [Hook]
    How bizarre
    How bizarre, how bizarre
    Destination unknown, as we pull in for some gas
    Freshly pasted poster reveals a smile from the past
    Elephants and acrobats, lions snakes monkey
    Pele speaks "righteous," Sister Zina says "funky"
    [Hook]
    How bizarre
    How bizarre, how bizarre
    [Break]
    Ooh, baby, (ooh, baby)
    It's making me crazy, (it's making me crazy)
    Every time I look around (look around)
    Every time I look around (Every time I look around)
    Every time I look around
    It's in my face
    Ring master steps out and says "the elephants left town"
    People jump and jive and the clowns have stuck around
    TV news and cameras, there's choppers in the sky
    Marines, police, reporters ask where, for and why
    Pele yells, "We're outta here," Zina says, "Right on"
    Making moves and starting grooves before they knew we were gone
    Jumped into the Chevy and headed for big lights
    Wanna know the rest? Hey, buy the rights
    [Hook]
    How bizarre
    How bizarre, how bizarre
    [Break]
    Ooh, baby, (ooh, baby)
    It's making me crazy, (it's making me crazy)
    Every time I look around (look around)
    Every time I look around (Every time I look around)
    Every time I look around
    It's in my face
    (It's in my face)
    Ooh, baby, (ooh, baby)
    It's making me crazy, (it's making me crazy)
    Every time I look around (look around)
    Every time I look around (Every time I look around)
    Every time I look around
    It's in my face
    Ooh, baby, (ooh, baby)
    It's making me crazy, (it's making me crazy)
    Every time I look around (look around)
    Every time I look around (look around)
    Every time I look around
    It's in my face

    This song was so unique when it came out, nothing like the 90s. Many people say initially they didn't like it. In fact some say the first time they heard it they hated it, thought it was weird. The whole song is unique and unlike the 90s songs. But even some of the people that initially hated it, later loved it. All I know is that the very first time I heard it, I fell in love with it. It's just a beautiful overall song, from the trumpets, the harmonica-like parts, the way Pauly sings it is so perfectly fitting to the music. I never get tired of listening to this song. It is a masterpiece, from start to finish it's just so perfect! How Bizarre!!!

      The 80s SUCKED (but some good music 😀) and 90s were a breath of fresh air, just like this song.

I don't see them anymore (we're all in our mid 30's now) and I don't even know what happened to a few or where this crazy ride called life took them, but will always have the cherished memories of those days.

      Originally from The Chambers Brothers - Funky. Also sampled by A Tribe Called Quest on "I Left My Wallet in El Secundo", who used the bass line from that song as well.
      That said, OMC made the best use of the sample, IMHO. Even in the Chambers Brothers' song, it feels out of place.

      Iirc they didn't know what to do with at first, it focused only on Pauly's voice originally. But they added to and enhanced Sina's part in production which creates harmonic tensions and makes it a little a weird. Sina was not a member of the band, but merely a back-up singer, though she knew both brothers since being a teenager and is the Sister Sina mentioned in the song.

For one, the native Hawaiians call themselves Maoli, speak a language very similar to Māori, and also the Māori ancestral homeland was an unidentified place called Hawaiki. Since Māori does not have any Ls (they swap them for Rs), you can see these words are extraordinarily similar for two places so far apart. Words they share include the fact that Māori and Maoli both mean “normal” in each language (i.e “normal people” in contrast to European people hahaha)

She is the only surviving member of the group, as founder Phil Fuemana passed away in 2005, his brother Pauly, featured here, who sang "How Bizarre" passed away from pneumonia in 2010.

      This song used to get huge radio play in late 90s.
      Loved it a lot but forgot the words.
      This song surfaced again yesterday after 1998.

      The 90s had their way of doing that no other decade could. People dancing at industrial sites in rap videos should be horribly dated by now, instead it's kind of cool in a cheesy way.

    Maybe "one hit wonder," but makes you feel good just the same: camera angles, vignettes, singers, dancers and editing; it all comes together with a vibe that's still fresh.
