Me And My Dinosaur

Thanks very much to Teri Scott, who e-mailed this song to me!

One day when the weather was cloudy and gray
And I wished that someone would come out and play
I heard a knock-knock
And I opened the door
And there stood the loveliest big dinosaur!

Chorus:

Me and my dinosaur
I’ve never had such a friend before
As big as a house, twenty times and a half
And fifty times taller than any giraffe
Legs long as sequoia trees
Teeth big as piano keys
No two people are buddies more
Than me and my dinosaur
I got out some cookies and we had a snack
And he asked if I wanted to ride on his back
I started to climb
From his tail to his cheek
The whole darn trip it took nearly a week!

We hop-scotched to Africa, quick as the breeze
While leapfrogging over the coconut trees
And when we got thirsty
For mile after mile
In one great big gulp
We just drank up the Nile

Me and my dinosaur
I’ve never had such a friend before
As big as a house, twenty times and a half
And fifty times taller than any giraffe
Legs long as sequoia trees
Teeth big as piano keys
No two people are buddies more
Than me and my dina, nothin’s as fine as,
Me and my dinosaur Bum Bump!
