Born to Chew (We Eat Meat)

from Old Mr. Mackle Hackle by Gunnar Madsen

/

lyrics

Yo! My name is Rex.
Rex, the dinosaur.
I'm a carnivore dinosaur, and what that means is,
Me and my buddies, we don't eat anything 'cept it's meat.
And we're gonna sing ya a song about it, okay?

We eat meat
We eat meat
Up in the air
Or under our feet
It sure tastes neat

We don't eat grass,or bugs or fruit
When we want a snack, when we want a treat
It's gotta be meat

I know some like to suck on seaweed
Others like to lick up all they eat
But we've got teeth, you know what we need
We need to gnaw on some meat
I say yeah (yeah) Yeah (yeah)!

We were born to chew
That's what our mothers always told us we had to do
Born to chew
Well momma, take a look at this!
(Chewing, tearing and gnawing!)

I know some like to suck on seaweed
Others like to lick up all they eat
But we've got teeth, you know what we need
We need to gnaw on some meat
I say yeah (yeah) Yeah (yeah)!

We were born to chew
That's what our mothers always told us we had to do
Born to chew
Well momma, take a look at this!
