Dinosaurs of Saurabia
By Michael "Swoop" Zajac, Benjamin "Pilpus" Lacasse, and Ethan "Jean Baptiste" Goldman
Chorus:
Dinosaurs of Saurabia,
Dinosaurs of Saurabia! (x2)
V1:
Dinosaurs of Saurabia,
Dinosaurs of Saurabia! (x2)
V1:
When my team comes out to play you know it,
Take over the field like a Cambrian Explosion
Set 'em up, knock 'em down that's a strike, we bowling
Yell out "Hooray!' when we take home the trophy
Team Hooray
dominates every damn battle
See me
Swoopin' in like a pterodactyl
Leave you in
the woods when I stab you in the back
But my boys
in green call that a Chimeron trap
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
V2:
Hooray, we
an army hurrah (hurrah)
And we gonn'
run our pikes right through ya (boo-ya)
With Pilpus
on the mic, there ain't even a fight,
Nice try,
checkmate, your queen has been Coup'ed yah!
They say
Swoop there is it!
Just call me
a caster because I'm a bardic wiz
Say your
goodbyes cause you will be missed
Cause' when
he spit it on the mic the battle's gonna be his
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
V3:
Looming over
you like a stegosaurus
Annihilating
everything that stands before us
Causing
carnage in a violent chorus
Cause I got
a big ego call me Megolasaurus
Dinos eat
messy so it might be gory
When we turn
Folkestone into Old Folk Story
Ending all
those days of glory
When the
white and blue weren't white and boring
