The Police

Fifty million years ago
You walked upon the planet so
Lord of all that you could see
Just a little bit like me

[Chorus:]
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps

Hey Mr. Dinosaur
You really couldn't ask for more
You were God´s favorite creature
But you didn't have a future

[Chorus]

Hey there mighty brontosaurus
Don't you have a message for us
You thought your rule would always last
There were no lessons in your past
You were built three stories high
They say you would not hurt a fly
If we explode the atom bomb
Would they say that we were dumb
We're...

[Chorus]

Fifty million years ago
They walked upon the planet so
They live in a museum
It´s the only place you´ll see ´em.

Walking in your footsteps...
They say the meek shall inherit the earth...
They say the meek shall inherit the earth...

Walking in your footsteps...
