lyrics

If your great great great great great great great great great great great
Grandfather was a dinosaur
And your great great great great great great great great great great great
Grandmother was too

They were twenty feet high and they swallowed the sky
But look at you now…
You live under a log
And you are the tiniest frog
In the Coromandel
Of New Zealand

CHORUS:
Come on and show us how you dance, Archey
Don’t be shy you’re a groovy little guy
Come on and show us how you dance, Archey
You can dance, you can dance, you can dance

If your great great great great great great great great great great great
Grandfather saw you here today
And your great great great great great great great great great great great
Grandmother did too

From Gondwana Land things didn’t go as they planned
Just look at you now…
You live under a log
And you are the tiniest frog
You’re a living fossil
In New Zealand

CHORUS:
Hit it Archey!!

BRIDGE:
I looked and I looked (so hard to find him)
I walked and I walked (up the tallest mountain)
I huffed and I puffed (glad I brought a water bottle)
Hey Mr Archey I can’t find you
Up in the trees (no sign of Archey)
Down in the lake (never going to find him)
I need a rest (glad I brought a raincoat)

There he is!!!

CHORUS:
