Jurassic Lark

When I was just a nipper
I was taken to the zoo
and saw the people running
from a naughty kangaroo.

It was doing what comes naturally
to all hot-blooded creatures.
It was doing it with a lady ‘roo
with a rapt look on its features

And all the parents grabbed their tots
and all the parents fled
in case their kids saw at the zoo
what they did at home in bed.

But hearken to the stunning news
thanks to good old DNA.
quite soon when we go to the zoo
there’ll be dinosaurs at play.

Some folks are thrilled to hear this
and others are less certain
for a place full of Tyrannosaurs
is a good place to get hurt in.

Cos if a raptor should decide
to tear you limb from limb
your chances of survival
could be classed as nil to slim.

But I’ve a different worry
from that panic way back when.
What if they got frisky
in the comfort of their pen?

From the mighty Brontosaurus
to the terrible T Rex
to put no finer point on it
just how did they have sex?

I guess that it was noisy
and a sight that was stupendous
as they got close and personal
with their giant sized pudendas.

Oh think how we would scramble
and think how we would fly
from thirty tons of dino
with the love-light in its eye.
