Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers
I’m a Little Dinosaur (live)
1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
I thought he'd never leave
Well I'm a little dinosaur
I'm a little dinosaur
I'm a little dinosaur
But I'm planning to go away
Now i am real, oh, don't you know
Born ten million years ago
But they don't love me here enough and so
I'm planning to go away
Now the children upon their lawn
Will wake up and wonder where I've gone
And the flies will buzz around where i now be
They're all gonna have to get along without me
They'll say
Wheres the little dinosaur
(I didn't think he'd really go)
Wheres the little dinosaur
Wheres the little dinosaur
(wheres that little dinosaur)
He must have gone away
(Please dont go away)
Oh no please dont go
(Oh no, I can't stand it)
Oh no please dont go
(I wish that little dinosaur would come back)
Dont go little dinosaur
(Nobody tells any more good jokes anymore since he's gone)
Please dont go away
(Everybody really likes you little dinosaur, don't go)
Oh no please dont go
(Yeah, they like you!)
Oh no please dont go
(They're applauding and everything!)
Dont go little dinosaur
(Tell that little dinosaur to come back)
Please dont go away
(I want him to come back)
Yeah that's right tell him to come back!
Okay, I'll come back
You know I'm back to stay
'Cos I'm just your little dinosaur
And I could never really go (No)
Never really go (He's back!)
Never really go away
