This one is for all those who have ever spent any time in Temuka!
Lyrics -
I LIKE TEMUKA-MUKA - YOU LIKE TE-MUKA MUKA
WE LIKE TE-MUKA MUKA - WE TE-MUKA!
Was the birthplace of Richard Pearse
Beat the Wright Bro-thers by a year
Chainsaw Laney - comes from here
T-K-A is the name they cheer
The MVP of Rock Island
20-19 his name’s Caleb
Guy called Mad Dog’s worth a mention
He’s Temuka’s drinking legend
Who nailed shoes onto that tree?
Who shot a bird that was called Harry?
The bird called Harry could talk you see
Was a local celebrity
6-1-5 is always tattooed
On people it’s like they forget to
Remember the start of their phone digits
The Tea Pot Inn has great cooked breakfast
CHORUS
Vinegar stink around the town
St Joes Playground got burnt down
Lesters Fish and Chips was named
Not for great fish, but arcade games
Only place that is producing
Bagpipes in all of New Zealand
At nightime you can hear cows mooing
From the sale yards, man, what are they doing?
Old Art Gallery on main street
Had a grow room they were growing weed
The cops found out and then they closed it
They were pretty much right next door to it
The high school isn’t teaching much
Just about dairy farms and petrol pumps
The Jolly Potter’s the Irish Bar
And Opihi is a big river
