Kia Ora Gaza from Kiwiland
We’re coming through to lend a hand;
We’re movin’ on, just a-rollin’ on,
We wont turn around, we’re freedom bound
We’re movin’ on. [CHORUS 1]

We’re heading for that Gaza strip
Put your pedal-to-the-metal & let her rip;
We’re movin’ on, we’re rollin’ on.
Coming down the line, get us there on time,
We’re movin’ on. [CHORUS 2]

From far away we heard the call
Now we’re gonna break right through that wall;
[CHORUS 1]

So let’s remember all those who died (pause)
And get this aid to the other side,
[CHORUS 2]

The ground will tremble, the dust will fly,
See those trucks go rumblin’ by,
[CHORUS 1]

We’re Kia Ora Gaza from Kiwiland
We’re coming through to make a stand
[CHORUS 1]
