Before bed these days Celia wants me to sing her a song, and one day I made some alterations to try to get her out of a funk to the traditional ‘You Are My Sunshine’. Now ‘You are my dinosaur’ is all that is requested on a nightly basis. So here it is with a few liberties as to how many syllables there are in each line for the original:

You are my dinosaur, my scaly green dinosaur. You make me happy when volcanoes erupt. You’ll never know dear how much I love you, please don’t take my scaly green dinosaur away.

The other night dear as I lay sleeping, I dreamed I held you in my talons. When I awoke dear, I was mistaken and I hung down my giant dinosaur head and I cried.

You are my dinosaur, my scaly green dinosaur. You make me happy when volcanoes erupt. You’ll never know dear how much I love you, please don’t take my scaly green dinosaur away.
