“Dinosaur Underwear” - The Jellyfish Bandits
I want to lie next to you girl
in the summer’s air
claim this field as our own world
I’ll play with your hair
we can make a nest out of twine
where the birds can sing
and all the clocks and the deadlines
they won’t mean a thing
I want to lie next to you in the tall grass
your dinosaur underwear is hella badass
let’s hang off every word
until it’s absurd
like we’ve never heard
“love” before
you want to get a tattoo of a heart
to put on your sleeve
even though it’s cliche tattoo art
and on this midsummer’s eve
we will watch the clouds until night falls
then we’ll watch the stars
safe from all those stupid phone calls
and driving in cars
[chorus]
Can we just lie here naked (I want to lie next to you)
from time on this blanket (I want to lie next to you)
you are so beautiful (I want to lie next to you)
I can hardly take it (I want to lie next to you)
[chorus]
