It was a night like this forty million years ago I lit a cigarette, picked up a monkey skull to go The sun was spitting fire, the sky was blue as ice I felt a little tired, so I watched Miami Vice
And Walked the dinosaur, I walked the dinosaur
CHORUS:
Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur
I met you in a cave, you were painting buffalo I said I'd be your slave, follow you wherever you go That night we split a rattlesnake and danced beneath the stars You fell asleep, I stayed awake and watched the passing cars
And walked the dinosaur, I walked the dinosaur
CHORUS
One night I dreamed of New York You and I roasting blue pork In the Statue of Liberty's torch Elvis Island in a rocket ship Healed a couple of leapers and disappeared But where was his beard?????
A shadow from the sky much too big to be a bird A screaming crashing noise louder than I've ever heard It looked like two big silver trees that somehow learned to soar Suddenly a summer breeze and a mighty lion's roar
