From T-Rex To Nuggets

Bouncy pop-rock, male vocals; bright acoustic guitar and snappy drums, cartoonish bass line, Verses stay tight and playful, then chorus explodes with gang shouts and handclaps, Middle section breaks down to half-time with spoken-style humor before a final big singalong hook, Light organ and goofy percussion accents for extra comedy

[Verse 1] Look at you Little feathered dude Scratching in the yard Like you never chewed a car in two You got a brain like a walnut Heart like a biker gang But you panic at a plastic bag Flap Squawk Boomerang [Chorus] You were a T-Rex Now you’re nuggets Evolution really said “good luck Kid” (hey!) From king of the jungle to drive-thru budget With your mighty roar now a nervous cluck It’s “BAWK BAWK BAWK” instead of “RUN OR DIE” Tiny arms upgraded to wings that don’t fly You were a T-Rex Now you’re nuggets History’s funniest plot twist [Verse 2] Once you ruled the riverbed Now you rule my breakfast plate Trading stomping on a stegosaur For showing up with hash brown mates Used to shake the earth in anger Now you shake when a leaf goes by (whoa) How’d a fossil with a thousand teeth End up deep-fried with a side of fries? [Chorus] You were a T-Rex Now you’re nuggets Evolution really said “good luck Kid” (oh yeah) From thunder lizard to lunchbox subject With a barbecue destiny Dipped and flipped “BAWK BAWK BAWK” instead of “FEEL MY WRATH” Now your natural habitat’s a salad bar bath You were a T-Rex Now you’re nuggets Science class never warned me of this [Bridge] [Spoken Mock-serious] Somewhere in your dino soul You remember meteors and molten stone Then you see a toddler with ketchup And think “thank the stars I made it home” (cluck) [Chorus] You were a T-Rex Now you’re nuggets Evolution’s prank that really stuck (hey!) From terror of the planet to picnic puppet Doing little laps ‘round a paper cup lid “BAWK BAWK BAWK” is your battle cry But I still see comets in your beady eyes You were a T-Rex Now you’re nuggets And I’m still a little scared of my lunch
