Lyrics I'm a Little Dinosaur - Jonathan Richman, The Modern Lovers

I'm a Little Dinosaur

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 old, don’t you know
Born ten billion years ago.
But they don’t love me here enough and so
I’m planning to go away
Now the children upon their lawns
Will wake up and wonder where I’ve gone.
And the flies that buzz around where I now be
They’re all gonna have to get along without me.
They’ll say, Where’s the little dinosaur?
Where’s the little dinosaur?
Where’s that little dinosaur?
He must have gone away.
Oh no, please don’t go
Oh no, please don’t go
Don’t go, little dinosaur,
Please don’t go away.
Oh no, please don’t go
Oh no, please don’t go
Don’t go, little dinosaur,
Please don’t go away.
Okay, I’ll come back
You know I’m back to stay
'Cause I’m just your little dinosaur
And I could never really go
Never really go
Never really go away.
