Today a wondrous event occurred
I went back in time to dinosaur days
I traveled there through a purplish blur
But I lost the time machine on the way

This world with creatures the size of buildings
And jungles full of vast vegetation
Traveling through is a wonderful thing
Thankful for my present education

All these memories will stay crystal clear
This experience I would never trade
They're coming if you listen you will hear
Now all of this world is starting to fade

Now I’m stuck in this room completely white
and wondering why my jackets so tight
