Song Lyric of the Day

"I don't mind worry following me like a dinosaur"
-Soul Coughing, "So Far I Have Not Found the Science"

I've always liked this lyric. It's kind of interesting because the comparison works, even though none of us have ever been followed by a dinosaur.

(I picture a medium-sized dinosaur lurking behind you all day, slyly reminding you of things you should be worried about.)

I think I am picturing that same dinosaur. He's kind of ducking his head like he's a little embarrassed.

Sounds pretty similar. He's not quite embarrassed, but he is non-ferocious and feels somewhat out of place. Not totally sure what to do with himself. (As victims of extinction, dinosaurs are well-schooled in things to be worried about. Like giant asteroids.)

yeah! that's it exactly: out of place and not sure what to do with himself!

Huh. The dinosaur I pictured was quite menacing indeed. Alternately tsk-tsking and threatening to eat you.
