How Bizarre – OMC

 

 

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?"

 

How bizarre
How bizarre, how bizarre

 

 

How Bizarre  was an unlikely international hit in the mid 90's.  It hailed from group from South Auckland – the OMC stands for "Otara Millionaires Club" – an ironic reference since at the time you didn't find a lot of millionaires in Otara.

 

The lead singer was Pauly Fuemana – he died in 2010 just before his 41^st birthday – gone much too soon.  He did have six children.

 

In the music video Pauly is seen driving a 1968 Chevrolet Impala – now that's a car!
