Wellington’s water woes

Julie from Island Bay

In Wellington the water leaks,
Been doing it for weeks and weeks.
The pipe by us got fixed but then,
A few weeks later it leaks again.

Down on Lambton Quay the path,
Is so very wet you have to laugh,
As you splash through or tiptoe round
Trying to stay on higher ground.

Now they’re saying we might run out
With so much sun and heat about.
So save some water, buy a tank
(Should already have one, to be frank)

Even though our rates are high
And no-one knows exactly why
We know one day all will be fine
If everybody toes the line

And doesn’t shower or wash the car
Or water the garden
Or use the spa.
Or cook
Or drink
(Let them drink wine!)
Don’t worry folks we’ll all be fine!
