Dinosaurs lived a long time ago

They were terrible lizards don't you know

Some ate plants and some ate meat

Some ate fish and some ate beasts

Leading your pet Trachadon

Or feeding your Brontosaurus Rex

Or swimming in Brachiosaurus' track

Oh what a time and oh what fun

playing tag with your Iguanodon

And if we had dinosaurs now
