Song Lyrics
Who's that in the garden eating all our red, red roses? (It's Dorothy!)

She wears a floppy white hat and yellow spots galore.

Look at those big green paws (Wow!)

She's a very friendly dinosaur.

Ahhhhh...

D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. Dorothy the Dinosaur

D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. She's my favourite dinosaur

Romp-Bomp-a-Chomp, hey! Romp-Bomp-a-Chomp, hey!

She's a really friendly dinosaur, she works so hard in the garden

She pulls out all the weeds, plants more roses and she mows the lawn

When the music starts, she dances on the floor

She's a really groovy dinosaur

Ahhhhh...

D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. Dorothy the Dinosaur

D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. She's my favourite dinosaur

Romp-Bomp-a-Chomp, hey! Romp-Bomp-a-Chomp, hey!

D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. Dorothy the Dinosaur

D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. She's my favorite dinosaur

Transcript from Yummy Yummy 1994
(Jeff dresses up as Dorothy the Dinosaur by putting on a hat and tail and Anthony arrives.)

Anthony: Hello. We're getting ready to meet our friend, Dorothy the Dinosaur. (Jeff tries putting the Dorothy tail behind but misses.) She's a really friendly dinosaur, Dorothy and whenever the Wiggles go sing and play, our friend, Dorothy the Dinosaur. And do you know what she sings? She sings Romp Bomp a Chomp, hey! Romp Bomp a Chomp, Hey! That's great except I'll tell you something else about Dorothy. Well, she loves...

(Jeff puts the Dorothy tail behind Anthony.)

What? I got a... I got a dinosaur tail. (Jeff laughs and gets the Dorothy hat.) Ah, well. Anyway, Dorothy, she loves roses because she eats roses all the time. She eats them day in and day out, Dorothy. Well, I'll tell you what. Why don't we meet Dorothy the Dinosaur. She's our favourite (Jeff puts the hat on top of him) dinosaur.

(Jeff laughs.)
