I am little spiky but I promise I’m not scary
I only have these spines to keep me safe
Inside I’m just a softie

I am a little baby, a lil’ Echidna baby
So please don’t be afraid, I love to play
Oh won’t you play a game?

We could roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away
We could roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away

If I’m a little prickly, its only cos I’m hiding
When I roll into a ball or dig a hole
It’s cos I need to hide away

I am a little baby, a lil’ Echidna baby
Oh please don’t be afraid, I love to play
Oh won’t you play a game?

We could dig dig dig dig dig dig underground
Can you dig dig dig dig dig dig just like me?
We can roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away
We can roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away
(roll roll roll roll roll roll roll)
We could roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away
(roll roll roll roll roll roll roll)
We could roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away
(roll roll roll roll roll roll roll)
We could roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away
(roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away)
We could roll roll roll roll roll roll roll away

We are a little spiky, but we’re not scary
We only have these spines to keep us safe

Can you roll roll roll roll roll roll away?
Can you dig dig dig dig underground?
Can you roll roll roll roll roll roll away?
Roll away, roll away
