Jurassic monster song

One day at the horror film, we were sat in the dark,

Scarified and petrified by Jurassic Park

When we heard a loud scream and then many more,

A real tyrannosaurus was taking the floor.

There was panic and mayhem as he walked to the stage,

He said I want a refund, his tail was wafting in rage,

And please don’t run off because I want you to stay

And hear all the things that I say.

CHORUS

I wanna see a horror film of humans,

They’re wrecking the world can’t you see.

I wanna see a horror film of humans,

They all look like monsters to me.

I read all the adverts, I’ve seen all the hype,

You ought to pay me for watching this tripe.

You’ve knackered the ozone, I’m shocked to the core,

As for this drivel, at best it’s a bore.

I find it atrocious, I find it a bind,

You’ve polluted this planet, now you’re polluting my mind.

Why pick on me, I just want to ask,

Were you just saving money on stars?

CHORUS

You’ve inherited this planet, you’ve made it a mess,

This film is like you, it’s so full of your cess.

You can never undo a tenth of your deeds

And you’ve made a right pig’s ear of Leeds.

You’re showing this rubbish throughout the land,

Except in t’ Pitt Rivers Museum where it’s properly banned.

The whole thing’s simply MONSTROUS

I want you to know

I’ll just take my money back and go.
