A long time ago, in the land of the dinosaur
Something would never take place.
With the fate of the world resting square on your 
shoulders
The crew will salute as you radio base, but they'll 
wipe
That smile off your face
With face-reconstruction CG.
Now your life has an alternate ending.
You could be spending your life with me.

Up on a pirate ship; out on a camping trip;
Some haunted house off in space.
On the trail of a maniac stalking the crew I will
Pull something out of my carrying case but the 
Draft with my flash light switched for an Arpa Lite
Isn't the one that was used.
Now my life has an alternate ending.
I will be spending my life confused.

Well lately yo I've been thinking of all the editing 
and all the cutting
That I've been doing on this project
It's lacking logic.
I gotta solve it
See me, I believe in fantasies, and these tragedies, 
and these comedies
But I'm hoping that, when I'm looking back, it'll be 
your face on that silver screen
But that isn't how we shipped it out
And that ending I could live without
Change it, make it canonical
Special edition just made available
Cause if Dante's still alive, then I can surely try
To change the ending of this movie called my life
And have you right there standing next to me
Makes me glad to see, fans all up in the balcony
Cheering for our story, worshipping our glory
Sadly it's a fantasy I distorted
And if ya feel, that it wasn't real
I'll just make some cuts and act like it's no deal
But in interviews I'll them, one against a million,
I was sadly forced to play the role of villain.
Keeping ego small but dammit, all of ya'll.
Far as I recall, the one who took the fall.

I would rise
To the very most costly occasion
Despite the occasional cost.
With a frequency critics
Revere as amazing,
You'd find me stargazing,
Remembering all that was lost on the cutting room floor
Won't appear anymore, even on DVD.
Now your life has an alternate ending.
You could be spending your life with me.

Ghost brontosauruses sung out in chorus saying,
"Son, what am I 'sposed to do?"
If my life had an alternate ending,
I could be spending my life
Ending my life.
If my life had an alternate ending,
I would be spending my life
With you.
