Spot the Dalmation

Spot the Dalmatian is a song from The Wiggles' debut album in 1991.

Listen[]

Spot the Dalmatian lost all his spots.

A big wind came and blew them right off.

Now without spots, Spot he is not.

So when the wind stops, he'll look for his spots.

Phil the Platypus lost his duck bill.

He lost it while singing at the foot of a hill.

Phil loves to sing the platypus song

But now all he sings is "Where's my bill gone?"

Now all he sings is "Where's my bill gone?"

Old Zorick the Zebra lost all his stripes.

The rain washed them off, now Zorick's instriped.

Now without stripes, he looks like a horse.

Zorick would say, "I'm a zebra, of course!"

Now all we've said it's not really true.

There's a lesson for me and a lesson for you.

Treasure your spots, your stripes and your bills

And remember poor Spot, old Zorick and Phil.

Remember poor Spot, old Zorick and Phil.

John Field composed the opening tune, which he sang to Phillip Wilcher over the telephone. The rest of the song and the lyrics was written by Anthony Field.
This is one of the few songs Phillip sings.
