(continue counting down to one) One huge dinosaur, Alone on a cave floor, Woke up and started to roar. "There's too much room on this floor, on this floor, There's too much room on this floor!"

So, they all came back and he cuddled with the four, And there were no more roars galore. 5 Dinosaurs (to the tune of "5 Elephants Went Out to Play") One dinosaur went out to play, On a bright and sunny day.
