He was her little dinosaur
Green makeup on his face
He practiced on his little roar
As he ran about the place
He stomped across the hallway
Arms waving, up the stairs
He said please, thank you and may I
And he bowed his head for prayer
He begged and begged for hours
He picked up and cleaned his room
He washed his hands and showered
He ran the vacuum, screaming zoom
She promised him that morning
She’d be home before sunset
She hollered out a warning
For him, just before she left
Trick or treat or smell my feet
Brush your teeth and share your loot
You are my favorite little sweetie
And best dinosaur to boot
We’ll have the most amazing time
Tonight when we go prowling
And everyone will see you’re mine
And tremble at your growling
