Come on down t' the big dig

Come on down t' the big dig

Come on t' the big dig

Singin' the Smithsonian Institute blues

Singin' the Smithsonian Institute blues

The way it's goin' La Brea tar pits

I know you just can't lose

The new dinosaur is walkin' in the old one's shoes

Come on down t' the big dig

Can't get around the big dig

This may be premature but if I'm wrong

You can just say it's the first time I was happy t' be confused

Singin' the Smithsonian Institute blues

Alll you new dinosaurs

Now it's up t' you t' choose

It sure looks funny for a new dinosaur

T' be in an old dinosaur's shoes

Dina Shore's shoes

Dinosaur shoes

C'mon down to the big dig

You can't get around the big dig

C'mon to the big dig

Ya can't get around the big dig

Singin' the Smithsonian Institute blues
