Dinosaurs

Dinosaurs - Chris Murray

When the earth was newly forming

And mankind had yet to be

Lived a mighty race of giant

Strong of claw and sharp of teeth

Dinosaurs

They were swimming in the ocean

Till they crawled up from the sea

Then one day they started flying

And they reigned the world supreme

Dinosaurs dinosaurs

Grandma's sewing denim

Patches on the pants of destiny

At the dawning of an era

Watching history repeat

It's lookin' like the easy answer is to

Blame society for the wars

They were swimming in the ocean

Till they crawled up from the sea

Then one day they started dying

Till the last one disappeared

No they never saw it coming

Though the signs were there to see

Dinosaurs dinosaurs

Now the earth is slowly warming and

We're chopping down the trees

To the children of tomorrow

We hand down this legacy

Never tired of playing with matches

Even crawling from the ashes humanity

They were watching television

Fixing cars and chasing dreams

Then somebody pushed a button

And they vanished into steam

That they never saw it coming

They would swear it and believe

Dinosaurs dinosaurs

They were swimming in the ocean

Till they crawled up from the sea

Then one day they started flying

And they reigned the world supreme

Though they never saw it coming

It was sudden and complete
