Brontosaurus is Back Lyrics

Thunder Lizard Brontosaurus is Back

He's not Apatosaurus and that is a fact

It's neck's a little longer and a little less wide

Feel the ground shake as he walks side to side

First there was a longneck called Apatosaurus

Then they found a new one and they called it Brontosaurus

Everybody liked this new dino name

Then someone looked at both and said they are the same

A paleontologist named Elmer Riggs

He found apatosaurus on one of his digs

He said, "Brontosaurus is just an apatosaurus with the wrong head on it"

And with that simple statement Brontosaurus was dead

Thunder Lizard Brontosaurus is Back

He's not Apatosaurus and that is a fact

It's neck's a little longer and a little less wide

Feel the ground shake as he walks side to side

Brontosaurus we miss you

You're our favourite dino and you know it's true

At shaking the ground you were the champ

Your image is found on postage stamp

You're our favourite sauropod

Not diplodocus who goes plod plod

Brontosaurus we thought you were a fake

Now we know that you were so great

Thunder Lizard Brontosaurus is Back

He's not Apatosaurus and that is a fact

It's neck's a little longer and a little less wide

Feel the ground shake as he walks side to side

A hundred years later it's 2015

After more study there was a mistake it seems

Apato and Bronto weren't exactly the same

So there may be a reason to give different names

Brontosaurus we think that you rock

Making the thunder wherever you walk

Hold your head up you can be proud

Here comes the chorus everybody sing loud

Thunder Lizard Brontosaurus is Back

He's not Apatosaurus and that is a fact

It's neck's a little longer and a little less wide

Feel the ground shake as he walks side to side
