Dan Bull - My Uncle Works in a Dinosaur Factory lyrics

Doctor Wu, calling Doctor Wu
Doctor Wu, calling Doctor Wu
Calling Doctor Wu

I am dropping a rhyme on a tropical island
With topical timing it's not as if I live
The oppulent life full of
Watches and diamonds
I’ve got to keep trying
I've got to keep writing
'Cause each of my lines is a genetic code
To open my life up and lighten the load
One drop of amber is like a little globe
To provide the real globe with
The life that has flowed
Through it's veins, it's arteries
Change has arrived
And it came to party, rave through the night
To the dawn of a day, another day
Another dollar that I can’t wait to spend
Make way for tomorrow
Today, if only I could have, would have
Should have
Too late, it goes to show you what another
You may have done, pray to the sun
Looking down the barrel of a gun

Look into an eye that's opening
For the first time you're both seeing
A different side of the coin, flip it now
Heads or tails, win or fail, it's a boy
It's a girl it's a lizard, it's a mammal
It's a bird against the world
A beast of burden clutching pearls like you
Just like you

If you can take a life and make it yours
The life can turn around and take yours
No accord to break of course
You couldn’t shake a set of razor claws
No no no
Nature doesn’t give and doesn't take
It merely says "it’s in my nature"
I hate to burst your bubble
But you're made up
Of the same stuff that can make or break you

Ever closer to the sun we flew
Until we landed on the moon
That's one small step for man
One giant footprint in the sand
Doctor Wu, calling Doctor Wu
Time's almost run out and torn
The clock in two
Division among the divisions is
Hell, division of cells, division of self
The vision it'self is sufficient to
Sell the decision to salvage
A living thing out of the DNA
Found at the dig site
And it’s exciting to give life
Because Doctor Wu, we're
Reseeding the Garden of Eden
With logic and reason
Now it's god that is grieving and
Feeling the wrath of a heathen
Do we need to stop the bereavement?
Previously we were heeding his creed
But, it's recently been pretty
Hard to believe him
In god years sixty-five million is
Just an awkward moment
But when you're caught up in
The jaws of dinosaurs
I don't think it's time to talk atonement
Today, if only could have, would have
Should have
Too late, it goes to show you what another
You may have done, pray to the sun
Looking down the barrel of a gun

Look into an eye that's opening
For the first time you're both seeing
A different side of the coin, flip it now
Heads or tails, win or fail, it's a boy
It's a girl it's a lizard, it's a mammal
It's a bird against the world
A beast of burden clutching pearls like you
Just like you

Doctor Wu, calling Doctor Wu
There's not a lot of time to lose
With all we've got to do
For the opportunity forwarding science
And forming alliances more than divine
It's awesome to find new forms of life
Four or five more new
Species hybrid dinosaurs
Each alive, inspiring awe

If you can take a life and make it yours
The life can turn around and take yours
No accord to break of course
You couldn't shake a set of razor claws
No no no
Nature doesn't give and doesn't take
It merely says "it's in my nature"
I hate to burst your bubble
But you're made up
Of the same stuff that can make or break you

Doctor Wu, calling Doctor Wu
Doctor Wu, calling Doctor Wu
Calling Doctor Wu
Doctor Wu, calling Doctor Wu
Doctor Wu, calling Doctor Wu
Calling Doctor Wu
