'I am Australian'

Poetry

5MG wrote their own verse to the song ‘I am Australian’. They included aspects that were important to them.

 

Lucca

I am the Melbourne Storm

I am the Navy Blues

I am the backyard barbie

I am the Air Jordan shoes

I am the F1 in Victoria

I am adventurous and wild

I am the rocky outback

I am an Australian child

 

Raiden

I am Australian

I love playing with my pets

I love seeing my friends

I love my country

I love sport

I love a good sausage on the BBQ

We are the people of Australia

We are Australian

 

 

Coop & Jake

I like eating Macca’s 

Playing footy is fun

We all pick up wrappers

Playing in the sun

We have great whites

Kangaroos are cool

Toast with vegemite

Playing in the pool

 

 

Grace

My friends, my family and pets

Snags from Bunnings are the best

After work we go for a big sleep

Kangaroos and koalas are our top 2 best

We always shorten our words to lazy to stay long

McDonalds, Maccas are the same, Aussie life is insane

Eat outside on sunny days

We are Australian

 

 

Rhiannon

I love a long car ride

Across the golden beach

And a warm hot chocolate

On a cold winter day

I love the snags from Bunnings

I love a family gathering

On a warm Christmas Day

I am proud to be an Australian child 

 

 

Cameron

I like a family holiday

We’re like stars upon a mountain

Twinkling down to stay

Just a simple card game

Can raise our spirits high

Now back upon a mountain

A view so incredible

I am Australian

 

 

Liam

I am the water in the sea

Everybody knows me

I plant all the trees

I am the dogs with the fleas

I am the flames in the oil

I am the water that boils

I am the wool on the sheep

I am the sheep that goes meeeep

 

 

Monisca & Hayley

I love to have a family feast

Rustling in the Autumn leaves

Watching footy games at the MCG

Cheering for our footy teams

Having hot chops in the winter breeze

The game is tight but we fight

I check my watch the game is done

We have won

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Miranda & Melody

An amazing family board game

Is what we do to pass the time

Nice meat pie for dinner and lamingtons for desert

Also a home made meal costs way more than a dime

We love our fluffy koalas and bouncing kangaroos

Emus, reptiles and our native plants

We love the wonderful sound of the didgeridoos

A great performance to listen to and is who we are

 

 

Max

I am the cold winter breeze

And the scorching summer sun

I am rustling with autumn leaves 

At the beach having fun

I am the Aussie Socceroos 

I am the cats on a winning streak

I watch the Roos never lose

I am about to go to sleep

 

 

Kira

I’m a salty water from the sea

A cuddle from the family is all I need

Music is something that always pleases me

I love a family dinner feed

Horseback riding or playing with my dog

I’m a cheerleader because it’s fun

I love an early morning fog

I am Australian

 

 

Mackenzie

I love a good dinner

I am a warm Sunday roast

When playing board games and bowling my dad is the winner 

I am the winds from the windy coast

Beam, floor, bars and vault I love it all

Horse riding is something that I can 

I love a long facetime call

I am Australian

 

 

Cohen

I love going to the city

Culture Kings is the best

Buying new shoes is

A lot better than the rest

I love surfing so much

It’s really quite wild

Big waves are amazing

I am a sporty Australian child. 

 

 

Ben

I love playing with animals

I also love my friends

I enjoy all the land

Until the world decides it’s my very end

I will like my culture forever

I may have different blood

And I may have other history

But I am Australian

 

Mason 

I am F1 Albert Park

I am the beach and I’ll stay till dark

I am the city at night

I am the pavlova bite

I am the Great Barrier Reef

I am not a thief

I am the fighter jet

And I love an Australian pet

 

 

 

Mrs Gray

I love a family dinner

A chat, a laugh, a hug

A card game with no winner 

Is what we all love

To tour our amazing country

To go on a long run

To watch a beautiful sunset

I am Australian
