Lyrics of
Dimetrodon

When I wake up on the wrong side of the planet
And the creamer for my coffee has gone bad
And the people on the street should really can it
Because I don't think they would like me when I'm mad
Down at the bottom I have a secret trick
It's a thing to bring me up when I am low
It's simple, it is easy, and it's real quick
And it went extinct two hundred million years ago
Di-me-tro-don
They ate sharks and were ten feet long
Di-me-tro-don
It's a thought that I can count on
When my darkest thoughts have got a hold on me
I close my eyes and I remember all their giant teeth
To shake off all the problems I have piled on
I picture the sailback giants of Di-me-tro-don
I am walking in a mall or in an airport
And I'm filling up with loneliness and fear
Like I'm not really a member of the species
And I don't think I am special I'm just weird
When I am feeling this one thing will make me smile
There are other folks who never quite fit in
They're kind of mammals, but they look like reptiles
And I bet that difference never bothers them
Di-me-tro-don
They ate sharks and were ten feet long
Di-me-tro-don
It's a thought that I can count on
When my darkest thoughts have got a hold on me
I close my eyes and I remember all their giant teeth
To shake off all the problems I have piled on
I picture the sailback giants of Di-me-tro-don
Be yourself
Count on your inner strength
Find your people
Hunt the weak
Di-me-tro-don
They ate sharks and were ten feet long
Di-me-tro-don
It's a thought that I can count on
When my darkest thoughts have got a hold on me
I close my eyes and I remember all their giant teeth
To shake off all the problems I have piled on
I picture the sailback giants of Di-me-tro-don
Di-me-tro-don
Di-me-tro-don
