Our 3rd Song for a suburb happened this morning and we had an hour to write a song about Riverton. Â What a spot!
Â
Lyrics..........
Â
All the old boats in Riverton
They float around in between the rocks
If you drive too quick (oh, way oh)
You miss the main street with all the shops
Â
There’s a cool flax mill and house
Sold for a dollar don’t cha know
And a big playground (oh, way oh)
There was a soundshell, it had to go
Â
All the kids fight for hump back skids down the
Whay-way-way-way-whaaaaale
Â
Life rocks in Riverton
Â
There’s a new museum, Te Hikoi
It’s got a cool train out the front
Aparima, oh way oh
Is where the surfers have the fun
If you want to find takeaways
Taramea Bay is hot
Or Mrs Clarkes (oh way oh)
They’ve won awards for the food they got
Â
Foreign types and Sunday drivers go
Way way way way way too sloooow
On the way to Riverton.
Life rocks in River…ton…..
