[Verse 1] I love diggin' in the dirt With just a pick and brush Finding fossils is my aim So I'm never in a rush Cause the treasures that I seek Are rare and ancient things Like Velociraptor's jaw Or Archaeopteryx's wings [Pre-Chorus 1] Now all the kids Who wanna see 'em Are lining up At our museum [Chorus] I am a paleontologist That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am I am a paleontologist That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am [Verse 2 ] Could it be an herbivore Crushing plants with rounded teeth Or ferocious carnivore Who moves so quickly on its feet It's like pieces of a puzzle That I love to try and solve It's so fun to think about How a species has evolved [Pre-Chorus 2]
And all the kids Who wanna see 'em Can check 'em out At our museum [Chorus] [Verse 3] Is it a T-rex? (I keep digging, digging, digging, digging) (Digging, digging, digging, digging) Maybe a Triceratops? (Digging, digging, digging, digging) (Digging, digging, digging, digging) Or a Carnotaur? (Digging, digging, digging, digging) (Digging, digging, digging, digging) (Digging, digging, digging, digging, diggin') Pachycephalosaurus? [Chorus 2] I am a paleontologist That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am I am a paleontologist That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am
