Dinosaurs At Play

(album: I've Got A Yo Yo - 1997)

I went down to dinosaur town
One Saturday morning, early
I was a little nervous
So I took my good friend Shirley
The dinosaurs came out to play
The ground was really shaking
And when they started jumping rope
The started an earth-quaking
Dinosaurs at play
They come out every day
You have to know just where to go
To see dinosaurs at play
Dinosaurs at play
They're very large and grey
You'd better stay out of the way
Of the dinosaurs at play
We hid in the undergrowth
And there we saw before us
As big as any battleship
A giant brontosaurus
Its neck was long and slender
And its long tail was a-thumping
She swung her neck around and 'round
And the little ones they were jumping
Dinosaurs at play
They come out every day
You have to know just where to go
To see dinosaurs at play
Dinosaurs at play
They're very large and grey
You'd better stay out of the way
Of the dinosaurs at play
A Stegosaurus lumbered by
He looked a little grumpy
With great big plates all up his spine
They made him seem quite lumpy
The little ones ran along his back
Around the plates were peeking
It made us laugh to see them all
As they were hide-and-seeking
Dinosaurs at play
They come out every day
You have to know just where to go
To see dinosaurs at play
Dinosaurs at play
They're very large and grey
You'd better stay out of the way
Of the dinosaurs at play
But then we saw them stop their play
We heard a frightening chorus
As through the trees there burst the form
Of fierce Tyrannosaurus
His teeth were huge and sharp as knives
His little red eyes were smoking
But then he started laughing
And he told them he'd been joking
Dinosaurs at play
They come out every day
You have to know just where to go
To see dinosaurs at play
Dinosaurs at play
They're very large and grey
You'd better stay out of the way
Of the dinosaurs at play
You'd better stay out of the way
Of the dinosaurs at play
