Chorus In dinosaur land they’re out to get you In dinosaur land they’re friendly too In dinosaur land you must be careful

Cos a big pair of eyes are watching you

Verse 1 If you take a trip back in time A couple hundred million years

You might be surprised, by the creatures you find Why don’t we take a look!

Who’s there high in the trees?

A neck so long munching on leaves A tail like a slide but there’s no need to hide

He’s diplodocus and he’s not mean

Hunting his prey it’s a meat feast today His name is T Rex get out of his way

Verse 3 Who’s there as big as a bus?

It’s Stegosaurus don’t make a fuss With spikes on his tail and plates on his back

He’s on the look out he’s on the attack

Verse 4 Who’s that high in the sky? A long nose and wings stretching wide

Long distance he flies with a good set of eyes It’s Pterodactyl let’s wave him on by
