Lyrics[]
"Hey, Wake Up Jeff,"
"Look, there's a Brontosaurus!"
"Don't you mean a BrontoSNORus?"
"Oh, hey, look there's a Diplodocus!"
"And a Pterodactyl,"
"Hey everyone, we must be in...Caveland!"
Let's take a trip to another time
Where, dinosaurs are everywhere
Oh yeah, ah ha, Here in Caveland
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Pterodactyls in the sky,
Brontosaurus running by
Oh yeah, ah ha, here in Caveland
Ooh, Ooh
We've gone back to prehistoric times
(to Caveland, to Caveland)
Let's take a look to see what we can find
(to Caveland, to Caveland)
No cars or trains but we'll get by.
Hooh, hooh, hooh, hooh
Take a ride on the dinosaur
(dinosaur yeah)
Just be careful if you hear it roar
Oh yeah, ah ha, here in Caveland
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
There's no pillows for your head
(for your head)
Gather leaves to make your bed
Oh yeah, ah ha, here in Caveland
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
We've gone back to prehistoric times
(to Caveland, to Caveland)
Take a look to see what we can find.
(to Caveland, to Caveland)
No cars or trains but we'll get by
Hooh, hooh, hooh, hooh
Let's do the Triceratops twirl
(Triceratop, yeah)
Now try the Stegosaurus swirl
Oh yeah, ah ha, here in Caveland
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
That's where we are, oh yeah
We're here in Caveland
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
We're in Caveland, We're in Caveland
(Ooh)
We're in Caveland, We're in Caveland
(Ooh, Ooh)
In Caveland (Ooh), In Caveland (Ooh)
In Caveland (Ooh), In Caveland (Ooh)
Caveland (Ooh Ooh)

Trivia[]
- This song originally appeared at the SIGGRAPH 2001 convention in Los Angeles, California, USA.
- To make the song into a CGI animated video, the stereo audio had to be folded down to mono or using the left or right channels so that sound effects could be added.
- The instrumental track for this song was used as background music in The Caveland Featurette, Series 6 episode "There Was a Princess" and Interview with The Wiggles' Mums.
- In the 2001 version it plays in E, but in 2012 it plays in D.
- In the CGI version, Greg and Murray's eye colors are swapped; Greg is depicted with brown eyes while Murray is depicted with green eyes when it should be the other way around. Likewise, Jeff is depicted with Sclera (which is black pupils) instead of brown irises.
