Tyrannosaur by BonnySaintAndrew

It was only just the other day, must I tell you this again?
I was sitting quietly at my desk, and I was bored out of my brain...
Come on, I've told you countless times the story of that day!
OK, I'll tell you one more time, if it makes you go away.

As I think I mentioned just before - the day was long and slow.
At least until it was disturbed, by a quite unearthly bellow.
I looked up from my place of work and was just in time to see,
A thing come crashing through the wall, most unexpectedly.

So there it stood, the king of beasts - a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
I must admit I was surprised, and had to clean my specs.
But no, my vision was correct, and a dinosaur it was,
One not seen for quite some time; well at least the late Cretaceous.

It stomped across the office space, leaving footprints on the floor,
And quickly gobbled up my boss as he ran blindly for the door.
My colleagues screamed and tried to flee, but Rexy was too quick.
It squished a few, and munched some more. Me? I just felt sick.

Then the creature crashed away again, past desks and office plants,
I'm sad to say when I looked down, I saw I'd wet my pants.
I know, my story seems far fetched, and that you may think I'm mad,
But I was happy at my work, and my colleagues weren't bad.

So release me from this padded room, as it really isn't fun,
I did not do these things you say... no, I do not own a gun.
You say I made the whole thing up? Well Sir, that goes to show -
I guess you have to do your job...

...but it wasn't me, oh no.
