Track Title: Walking in Your Footsteps Album Title: Synchronicity Prime Artist: The Police Producer: Hugh Padgham Producer: The Police Written by: Sting (Gordon Sumner) 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 Hey, Mr. Dinosaur, you really couldn't ask for more You were God's favorite creature, but you didn't have a future Walking 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 they would say that we were dumb 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 They say the meek shall inherit the earth Walking in your footsteps |
