I love this song. It's so whimsical. It puts me in a happy mood each time I listen to it. It's very cute.
Someone on Sondre's forum posted a translation of the lyrics into English. I'll post them here too since I think it gives a better understanding of the song.
One moonlit night in Honolulu
It was there [that] I met Lulu
Four heads, seventeen legs
And [those] four heads loved me
And [those] seventeen legs took a walk with me
In Waikiki
lalalalalalala lala
Yes, those were the days!
[But] to go to Honolulu
To play [the] horn with Lulu
I can no longer do
[Because] the trip has become too expensive
Yes-everything is [too] expensive, even for animals
But what do I do?
lalalalalalala lala
Yes-I sing about Lulu
One moonlit night in Honolulu
It was there [that] I met Lulu
Flowers hung around the necks
She looked at me and kissed me
She played chess with me
