Have you ever smelled Waimarino?
Sure you have
Remember that time
Paddling on the river
Making a raft and trying to hold on
And as some people just let go
Remember that time
You nearly let go
And you played fish and sharks
That was kayaking at Waimarino

Have you ever smelled Waimarino?
Sure you have
Remember that time
looking down at the water below
From the high diving board
Getting into position
As you jumped off the board
And you smashed into the water
Remember when you swam back
With the feeling of bravery
That was Waimarino!
By Matthew

Have you ever smelled the Gladiator pole?
Sure you have
Remember that time when you stood freakishly on the pole
Feeling nervous as you looked at the person in front of you
And you took a big gulp and started to push
Remember how fought back the laughter
And then you smashed into the water
That was the Gladiator pole!

Have you ever smelled Waimarino?
Sure you have
Remember that time
When you played the sharks and fishes game
As you crossed a certain point
You became the shark
And you paddled fast to catch the fish
Remember that everyone got to be a shark
And the last fish was the winner
That was Waimarino!!!

Have you ever smelled the water slide?
Sure you have
Remember that time
When you were sliding down the slide s fast as you could
And you were getting splashed in the little pool
As you crashed into everyone on the way
And when you got to the end
You raced up and did it again
Remember that time when you went down and hurt your knee
And when someone was in your way
You started screaming
That was the water slide!!!!

That was the high diving board!!

That was the blob at Waimarino!!
