"Walk The Dinosaur" lyrics
(originally by Was (Not Was))
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
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
I walked the dinosaur
I walked the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
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 slept beneath the stars
You fell asleep, I stayed awake and watched the passing cars
And walked the dinosaur
I walked a dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
One night I dreamed of New York
You and I roasting blue pork on the Statue of Liberty's torch
Elvis flew in on a ship
The king said, "Put your back in it"
Because things got too weird
Yes, it was here
Oh, 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
I walked a dinosaur
I walked a dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
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
I walked the dinosaur
I walked the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom

That night we split a rattlesnake and slept beneath the stars
You fell asleep, I stayed awake and watched the passing cars
And walked the dinosaur
I walked a dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur

Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom

Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
