D#                 G#
Dinosaurs lived a long time ago
A#                          D#
They were terrible lizards don't you know
D#                   G#
Some ate plants and some ate meat
A#                 D#
Some ate fish and some ate beasts

One was called Diplodocus
One was bigger than your school bus
One was called a Triceratops
Three horns to stop anything that hops

Now can't you just see yourself walking along
Leading your pet Trachadon
Or feeding your Brontosaurus Rex
or scratching your Diplodocus' neck

Or riding on a Stegosaurus' back
Or swimming in Brachiosaurus' track

Oh what a time and oh what fun
playing  tag with your Iguanodon
And if we had dinosaurs now
Could they get along with a horse and a cow

hm, well I wish they hadn't
become extinct, dinosaurs
would be nice pets and friends
to have around to run outside
and play with every day don't you
think
