Annotations: Don't, Darren, Don't

On January 14 2009 at approximately 11.55pm I suddenly had a FLOOD of ideas for Dinosaur Planet, and had to GET UP, run downstairs, and write them down. The FLOOD continued next morning and, by lunchtime that day I'd pretty much written out the entire first proper draft of the plot, ready for a meeting with Mr S Hewitt that evening.

The outline had several song titles in it, and this was one of the first ones I came up with. I knew how the verses would go and the general idea, but it was a bit of a struggle to work it out. I had a go on the 17th, but it wasn't until the next day when I had the idea of including choruses about other, similar, situations, when it started to fall in place. There was still a LOT of to-ing and fro-ing with the verses though, it took AGES to get it to work properly.
