lyrics

the dinosaur the dinosaur he didn't know
the meteor the meteor would lay them low
the burning rock, the aftershock
the cloud of dust
to block the sun, and everyone
could not adjust
the end came for
the dinosaur
upon the Earth.

Behold, the noble stegosaur
More than just a metaphor
Once a real true science fact
Before the big rock made impact
Into the Gulf of Mexico
over 60 million years ago

the dinosaur the dinosaur he didn't know
the meteor the meteor would lay them low
the Big Kaboom,
The shroud of Doom
the darkened sky
The scene went bad
And so they had to say goodbye
Extinction for the dinosaur
Upon the Earth
