VERSE
D
It was a night like this forty million years ago
I lit a cigarette picked up a monkey start to go.
The sun was spitting fire the sky was blue as ice
I felt a little tired so I watched "Miami Vice".

Open the door - get on the floor!

Open the door - get on the floor!

Open the door - get on the floor!
everybody walk the dinosaur.
Open the door - get on the floor!
everybody walk the dinosaur.

VERSE 2
D
I met you in a cave - you were painting Buffalo
I said I'd be your slave - follow 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.
G F
I walked a dinosaur
Em7 Eb5 A7
I walked a dinosaur! . . .
Chorus
SOLOS (2X – eight bars each: Organ and then sax)
VERSE 3
D
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.
G F
I killed a dinosaur
Em7 Eb5 A7
I killed a dinosaur!
D
Open the door - get on the floor!
everybody kill the dinosaur.
Open the door - get on the floor!
everybody kill the dinosaur.
Open the door - get on the floor!
everybody kill the dinosaur.
Open the door - get on the floor!
everybody kill the dinosaur.
Open the door - get on the floor!
everybody kill the dinosaur.
