Sting Walking In Your Footsteps Lyrics

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

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 favourite creature
But you didn't have a future

Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps

Hey 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 storeys high
They say you would not hurt a fly
If we explode the atom bomb
Would they say that we were dumb?

Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps

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
Walking in your footsteps

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