| A long long time ago |
| 65 million years |
| Giant reptiles roamed the land |
| Carnivores and herbivores |
| Pterosaurs and plesiosaurs |
| These creatures were indeed, pretty grand |
| But on a day like no other |
| Every dinosaur and their mother |
| Saw a burning asteroid |
| And knew they'd soon be destroyed |
| Many of them were burned alive |
| And almost none would survive |
| Life on Earth was petrified |
| The day the dinos |
| Died |
| So bye, bye to all those dinosaur guys |
| Some of the biggest, baddest beasties you could ever come by |
| But all thanks to that giant rock from the sky |
| Now they're all in the dirt, fossilized |
| Now they're in the dirt, fossilized |
| Did you know that trilobites |
| Crawled the seas day and night |
| Till the end of the Permian |
| And have you heard of Dimetrodon |
| And other creatures since long gone |
| Like a giant scorpion |
| Well, I know they looked like dinosaurs |
| But they lived millions of years before |
| Those crazy looking animals |
| Were more similar to mammals |
| I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck |
| With a pink carnation and a pickup truck |
| But I knew I was out of luck |
| The day the music died |
| I started singin' bye, bye Miss American Pie |
| Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry |
| Them good ole boys were drinking whiskey 'n' Rye |
| Singin' this'll be the day that I die |
| This'll be the day that I die |
| Now, for ten years we've been on our own |
| And moss grows fat on a rolling stone |
| But, that's not how it used to be |
| When the jester sang for the king and queen |
| In a coat he borrowed from James Dean |
| And a voice that came from you and me |
| Oh, and while the king was looking down |
| The jester stole his thorny crown |
| The courtroom was adjourned |
| No verdict was returned |
| And while Lennon read a book on Marx |
| The quartet practiced in the park |
| And we sang dirges in the dark |
| The day the music died |
| We were singin' bye, bye Miss American Pie |
| Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry |
| Them good ole boys were drinking whiskey 'n' Rye |
| Singin' this'll be the day that I die |
| This'll be the day that I die |
| Bye, bye Miss American Pie |
