Dimetrodon by The Doubleclicks Lyrics
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 streets should really can it
'Cause I don't think they would like me when I'm mad
Down at the bottom, I have a secret trick
I have a thing to bring me up when I am low
It is simple, it's easy, and it's real quick
And it went extinct two hundred million years ago
Dimetrodon
They ate sharks and were 10 feet long
Dimetrodon
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 sail-backed giants of Dimetrodon
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 this species
And I don't think I am special, I'm just weird
When I am feeling this, one thing can make me smile
There are other folks who never quite fit in
They're kind of mammals but they look like reptiles
But I bet that difference never bothered them
Dimetrodon
They ate sharks and were 10 feet long
Dimetrodon
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 sail-backed giants of Dimetrodon
Be yourself
Count on your inner strength
Find your people
Hunt the weak
Dimetrodon

Dimetrodon
And the creamer for my coffee has gone bad
And the people on the streets should really can it
'Cause I don't think they would like me when I'm mad
Down at the bottom, I have a secret trick
I have a thing to bring me up when I am low
It is simple, it's easy, and it's real quick
And it went extinct two hundred million years ago
Dimetrodon
They ate sharks and were 10 feet long
Dimetrodon
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 sail-backed giants of Dimetrodon
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 this species
And I don't think I am special, I'm just weird
When I am feeling this, one thing can make me smile
There are other folks who never quite fit in
They're kind of mammals but they look like reptiles
