[Lupe Fiasco, Kaelin Ellis - DINOSAURS lyrics]
So, where should we begin?
Maybe we should begin at the beginning
Sounds fine to me, yeah
Dinosaurs came in all colors
They were creatures with different features
Had teeth to eat ya
They made beds called nests
And laid eggs after they had sex inside 'em
Whether they ate plants or meat is
How you could divide 'em
And the Flintstones
They they used to ride 'em
With tails particularly good for slidin'
But in real life
It probably didn't go down like that (Rawr)
They probably didn't sound like that
But maybe close if we are to believe Noah
They didn't really know how to make boats
And they drowned like that via paleontology
Fossily is how they mostly found like that
Bones in the stones, that's if you soil-dig
But, if you oil-rig, they warm up the homes
Power up the cars in Jurassic Park
It was a zone full of clones
They say they death came from the stars
An asteroid flew down and blowed up the grown
The babies too, the whole family
The entire Brady crew bit the dust
Like food from the floor
Just imagine one day all the Cruncheroos
Was just removed from the store
And not just shooed off the stage
But booed off the tour if they had lawyers
They coulda sued some for sure
Class actions when that happens
You know the rules objection, sustained
Raptor snappin' gets overruled
Respect the court
This ain't your condo in Toronto
They ran in packs, Brontosaurus ran in hers
Pterodactyls was the birds
The prehistoric conceptual source of
The Mighty Morphin' combo
Word, uh, it gets rangerous
Come hit the museum if you wanna hang with us
But mostly just the skeletons
Now if you wanna use brain cave
Space as a metric for intelligence
Then Tyrannosaurus Rex wasn't the
Smartest of the smartest
But, you wouldn't wanna box with
The short-armed carnivorous martial artist
You ain't gotta be the sharpest
Saw to slice the sausage
Or the largest ninja star in all of Harlem
To carve a part into a target, if we arguin'
They say they where we get chickens from
So which came first
Ancestors or the chicken son?
Skulls flows cross roads like tips and thumbs
In Bruce Lee's gi, tell me to freeze
I might kick your gun
Call it survivin' the ice age
Reptilian, how old?
'Bout two hundred and forty-two million
Post-Cretaceous, they status was basically
Wiped from the face
Of our favorite little ball in the skies
Some were small, some were
Tall, some would crawl, some would fly
But we gotta thank 'em all
'Cause without them
We wouldn't have the malls of Dubai
But they also kinda gave us
All a climate change
I ain't tryna blame, I'm just saying
Sometimes they go by they science names
Megalosauroidea or Sauropodomorpha
Whatever you wanna call 'em
Whether it be Grimlock
Yoshi or Earl Sinclair
Just remember at one time
This whole world was theirs
Ahoy, kids, uh huh huh huh huh
Ba da, da da, da da da, da, da da, da da
Da daa
Da da, da da, da da da, da da, da da, da daa
Da da, da da, da daa, daa daa, daa daa
