Lyrics
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

CHORUS 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'

CHORUS

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")

CHORUS (2 TIMES)
