Long ago and far away in a different age When i was a dumb young guy Fossilized photos of my life then Illustrate what an easy prey i must have been Standing in the sun, idiot savant Something like a monument I'm a dinosaur, somebody is digging my bones Ignorance has alway been something i excel in Followed by naivete and pride Doesn't take a scientist to see how Any clever predator could have a piece of me Standing in the sun, idiot savant Something like a monument I'm a dinosaur, somebody is digging my bones When i look back on the past It's a wonder i'm not yet extinct All the mistakes and bad judgements i made Nearly pushed me to the brink It doesn't pay to be too nice It's the one thing i have learned Still, i made my fossil bed Now i toss and turn I'm a dinosaur, somebody is digging my bones
