| Like a Dinosaur On a Roll |
 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Like a Dinosaur is so much fun to play with the children at Milldam Nursery School in Concord, MA. It is my most requested song because they love the suspense as well as the opportunity to stomp and roar during each chorus. Some of the children enjoy the chaos while others like the opportunity to think about something scary in a safe and fun classroom setting. I invited neighborhood children to the studio to sing, stomp and roar. This was one of the three songs that the chorus of children learned and performed. Thanks Ainsley, Carter, Ella, Elizabeth, Jacob, Maisy and Zora. |
Like a Dinosaur by Tim Seston Jack was determined today he would find Answers to riddles that cluttered his mind He mapped out a plan and drew up a chart Counted his clues and was ready to start One – I found footprints that don’t make much sense Two – are the gaping new holes in the fence Three – I heard noises while sleeping last night Four – I’m suspicious that something’s not right Stomp, Stomp - all around the floor Stomp, Stomp - like a dinosaur Stomp, Stomp - let me hear you all roar Then quiet right down and I'll tell you some more First were the footprints as large as a Jeep Spread ten feet apart and sunken down deep What do you think could make something like those? Something that’s bigger than me I suppose Second I noticed the fence had some holes Each just as wide as two street hockey goals What kind of beast could have made such a mess? Something that’s bigger than me I would guess chorus Third I remembered those deep rumbling roars That rattled our windows and all of our doors What could make noises so fierce and so pure? Something that’s bigger than me I am sure Fourth I know something is terribly wrong I think that the source will come before long Jack put on his coat and slipped on his shoes Picked up his notebook to write down more clues chorus But just as he opened and walked throught the door Once again Jack heard that deep rumbling roar He looked straight ahead and his eyes opened wide A T-Rex was standing in his back yard outside. It was a strange thing or so you may think To play with a beast that you thought was extinct But Jack and the T-Rex had hours of fun Before it went home and their play date was done. |
