Their Brains Were Small (and They Died)
(Mark Graham)

When I sit in contemplation of the human situation
I often feel a certain sense of pride
For our achievements are many and mighty
And the evidence cannot be denied
But my reverie is shaken 'cause my thoughts are always taken To a
tragedy that happened long ago,
When there moved throughout the land
Beings awesome and grand
The fabulous dinosaur
They were creatures in a manner quite reptilian
In their unique and stylish way,
And their numbers could be reckoned in the millions;
But there are zero of these heroes in the world today
They had music, art and fashion, there was dinosauric passion
And I think they'd be enraged and mortified
That when they're mentioned today it's only to say:
Their brains were small and they died

Perhaps some asteroid that mother earth could not avoid
Became the agent of their premature demise
Well l understand that these things can happen,
So who are we to criticize?
When we'll spend most any price to have the ultimate device
That insures the perfect global suicide
Well, l would venture instead that the humanoid head
Is where the tinier brain resides
And when we're gone our works they'll start to crumble
Until nothing can be found
In ten million years some other guys may stumble On our fossils
then some asshole will begin to expound, in some scientific study
to his cockroach science buddies How the evidence can never be
denied---They were big dumb and slow, they couldn't go with the
flow Their brains were small, and they died
