Can you remember
The magic Mesozoic numbers?
The dinosaur one to ten

Can you remember
The magic Mesozoic numbers?
The dinosaur one to ten

A velociraptor has got one claw
A baryonyx has got more
A troodon's got two long legs
He steals other creatures' eggs

A triceratops is a quadruped
with three big horns upon his head
His four legs are short and strong
His head is big and very long

Can you remember
The magic Mesozoic numbers?
The dinosaur one to ten

Can you remember
The magic Mesozoic numbers?
The dinosaur one to ten

A tyrannosaurus rex is grey
He eats creatures every day
He is five metres high
He can run, but he can't fly

An iguanodon eats leaves and plants
He lives on six continents
A pteranodon can fly
His wingspan's seven metres wide

Can you remember
The magic Mesozoic numbers?
The dinosaur one to ten

Can you remember
The magic Mesozoic numbers?
The dinosaur one to ten

A diplodocus is very strong
His neck is eight metres long
When a giganotosaurus runs
Look out – he weighs nine tons!

A brachiosaurus can't run far
at ten kilometres an hour
He's a giant herbivore
And he's the biggest dinosaur

Can you remember
The magic Mesozoic numbers?
The dinosaur one to ten

Can you remember
The magic Mesozoic numbers?
The dinosaur one to ten
