Your Friendly, Hungry, Neighborhood Pterodactyl
A flaming Pterodactyl, is quite a sight to see
A flaming Pterodactyl, is quite alright with me
A flaming Pterodactyl, is helpful in a crunch
He hates to do
My homework too
And heats it over lunch
A homing Pterokeet, is weary on the wing
A homing Pterokeet, is not inclined to sing
A homing Pterokeet, is quick to fix a flap
She has to fly
A stormy sky
Without a safety nap
A lovesick Stegosaurus, is reading poetry
A lovesick Stegosaurus, is lonely as can be
A lovesick Stegosaurus, is yearning to be bright
He never knows
That when he glows
He lights my room at night
A tepid Raptorexus, is grazing on my grass
A tepid Raptorexus, is sure to let me pass
A tepid Raptorexus, is not so fond of fights
He'd rather chance
A disco dance
Or prance around in tights
A cuddly Crocokitty, is chewing on my limb
A cuddly Crocokitty, is mewing for a swim
A cuddly Crocokitty, is giving me the slip
She'll never slight
An appetite
For Crocokitty nip
A silly Humanoid, is what I really am
A silly Humanoid, is like a candy ham
A silly Humanoid, is silly thru and thru
The kind of me
Who longs to be
A silly 'noid with you.
