The Police Walking in Your Footsteps (Live) lyrics

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

Walkin' in your footsteps
Walkin' in your footsteps
Walkin' in your footsteps
Walkin' in your footsteps

Hey, Mr. Dinosaur
You really couldn't ask for more
You were God's favorite creature
But you didn't have a future

Walkin' in your footsteps
Walkin' in your footsteps
Walkin' in your footsteps
Walkin' in your footsteps

Hey, mighty Brontosaurus
Don't you have a lesson for us?
You thought your rule would always last
There were no lessons in your past

You were built three stories high
They say you would not hurt a fly
If we explode the atom bomb
Would they say that we were dumb?

Walkin' in your footsteps

Walkin' in your footsteps
Walkin' in your footsteps
Walkin' in your footsteps

They say that, "The meek shall inherit the earth"
They say, "The meek shall inherit the earth"
Walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin'
Walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin'

The real Father Flintstone
Took [Incomprehensible] extinction
But you really have to think hard
When you're walking in your graveyard

Fifty million years ago
They walked upon the planet so
They live in a museum
It's the only place you'll see 'em

Now we're walkin' in their footsteps
Walkin' in their footsteps
Walkin' in their footsteps
Walkin' in their footsteps

Walkin' in their footsteps
Walkin' in their footsteps
Walkin' in their footsteps
Walkin' in my footsteps, oh
