Song Lyrics
Gio: I was looking out my window

late the other night

She was sitting in the garden

and gave me such a fright

Eating all mum's roses

there in the moonlight

It was Dorothy the Dinosaur

I knew that if Mum saw her

She'd never let her stay

A dinosaur as big as that

needs feeding night and day

I'd have to find a place

Where I could hide her away

Dorothy the Dinosaur

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Dorothy the Dinosaur (chomp)

I knew that she was so big

that she'd soon be found

My mother called the dog catcher

he came around

When he laid his eyes on her,

he fell to the ground

'Now I take it, that's Dorothy the Dinosaur'

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Dorothy the Dinosaur (chomp)

They called up the police

to take her right away

They called up the zoo

to find a place to stay

I said they couldn't take her

I said 'No way,

that's Dorothy the Dinosaur'

("That's me")

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Dorothy the Dinosaur (chomp)

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp

Romp-bomp-a-chomp
