Full lyrics: If you saw a dinosaur, you’d lock your door when you heard the roar. An awesome sight, you can be sure, like nothing ever seen before. But me, I’m glad those dinosaurs are not here anymore! D - d - d - dinosaur If you saw a dinosaur I thought I saw a dinosaur. I baulked at walking out my door. My teacher taught me, “Dinosaurs are dead and gone, they are no more.” But after what I thought I saw, I’m feeling less than sure. D - d - d - dinosaur I thought I saw a dinosaur I called the police and army corps. I promised them a big reward, If they could catch the dinosaur I saw outside my door. The search began, both long and broad, to find that dinosaur. D - d - d - dinosaur They’re going to find a dinosaur They searched until they were exhausted, pouring in their full resources, Then I said, “It’s just a story, there was not a dinosaur”. I’m in a lot of trouble now for sure! D - d - d - dinosaur There was not a dinosaur I’m in trouble now, for sure D - d - d - d - dinosaur
