John Williamson Santa Bring Me a Dinosaur song lyrics

When Christmas comes I don't want a bike,

Or toys and things that other kids like.

I don't want a cat or a labrador,

Santa brings me a dinosaur.

Like the tyrannosaurus rex

Or the brontosaurus with the big long neck.

San-ta won't you please en-sure,

That you'll bring me a dinosaur.

Santa, bring me a dinosaur,

Old as a million years or more.

Least as tall as the second floor.

Santa bring me a dinosaur.

Santa, bring me a dinosaur,

With blood-shot eyes and a giant jaw.

One to keep for ever more

Santa bring me a dinosaur.

I'll take it to obedience school

And show it how to swim in a swimming pool,

Build it a bed on a ton of straw,

If you buy me a dinosaur.

I'll teach it lots of games to play,

and promise I'll walk it every day,

On a winch that I'll keep in the kitchen drawer,

If you buy me a dinosaur.

Now a sabre-toothed tiger wouldn't be bad,

But how would I explain it to my Mum and Dad.

They'd make me send it back for sure, so Santa bring me a dinosaur.

Santa, bring me a dinosaur,

With blood-shot eyes and a giant jaw. One to keep for ever more
