Quetzalcoatlus Lyrics by Ian Cooke

Antiquasauria

2015

Though my long beak is fairly thin and toothless
Slow my technique is finding food. I'm ruthless
I am a Quetzalcoatlus. I know my name is odd -
Strange as the shape of a nautilus. It came from a Mesoamerican feathered serpent god
Oh, I was made for soaring. It was made for me, so what's to stop the roaring
Need to frequently go closer to the bright ball blazing overhead?
Can't resist the flight call. Desire must be fed
In the plains I live on, deep within the heart of Texas
Which will not be named 'til long after I take my last breath
'til long after I die, 65 million years by
Not too long before the Wright Brothers fly
Not until then will anything of my jumbo size do so
Grand ahzdarchid, wild blue yonder king!
You're the largest airborne living thing
Fast twitch fiber: muscles made like springs
Like a tiger outfitted with wings
