[Verse 1]
When I Awake up on the wrong side of the Dplanet
And the Acreamer for my coffee has gone Dbad
And the Apeople on the street should really Dcan it 
Because I Adon't think they would like me when I'm Dmad
Down at the Ebottom I have a Dsecret Atrick
It's a tEhing to bring me up when I am lAow
It's sEimple, it is easy, and iDt's real quAick
EAnd it went extinct two hundred million years E7ago
[Chorus]
DDi-me-trAo-don
They aAte sharks and were Dten feet Along
DDi-me-trAo-don
It's a thought that I Dcan count Aon
When my daErkest thoughts have got a Dhold on Ame
I close my eEyes and I remember all their gDiant tAeeth
To shEake off all the problems I have Dpiled Aon
I piEcture the sailback giE7ants of Di-mDe-tro-Adon

[Verse 2]
I am waAlking in a mall or in an aiDrport
And I'm fiAlling up with loneliness and fDear
Like I'm nAot really a member of this sDpecies
And I dAon't think I am special I'm just weDird
When EI am feeling this one thing will mDake me sAmile
There are oEther folks who never quite fit Ain
They're kind of mEammals, but they look Dlike Areptiles
And I bEet that difference never bothered tE7hem
