Dinosaur Like Me
© 2001 Bryan Masters
G Am C D
G Am C D
When I see you on the street I look the other way
G Am C D
so you won't realize I've been memorizing every move you make
Em Am C D
I really needn't worry 'bout you noticing, you see
G D C G
you've no use for a dinosaur like me.
It's a serious situation I'll endeavor to explain
your blue crayola eyes can illustrate this old man's pain
half my age and smarter than I'm ever gonna be
you've no use for a dinosaur like me.
Em Am
Perfect stranger
C D
saddest song I've ever sung
Em Am
I feel ancient
C D
and you're so very young
It's a middle-aged conceit I entertain to keep me young
as if I'm buff and blonde and debonair and savage and well ... read
though it seems a girl like you could set my spirit free
you've no use for a dinosaur like me.
Oh, Lolita
saddest story ever told
young and sweet and
I'm so very old
so doctor what's the medicine for this sad malady
you know a few short hours with you might save my dignity
I'd show you a thing or two or maybe even three
you've no use for a dinosaur like me.
