Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fifty million years ago
You walked upon the planet so
Lord of all that you could see
Just a little bit like me
[Verse 2]
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
[Verse 3]
Hey, Mr. Dinosaur
You really couldn't ask for more
You were God's favourite creature
But you didn't have a future
[Verse 4]
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
[Verse 5]
Hey, mighty brontosaurus
Don't you have a lesson for us?
You thought your rule would always last
There were no lessons in your past
[Verse 6]
You were built three storeys high
They say you would not hurt a fly
If we explode the atom bomb
Would they say that we were dumb?
[Verse 7]
We're, walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
[Verse 8]
They say the meek shall inherit the earth
They say the meek shall inherit the earth
[Verse 9]
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
[Verse 10]
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
