Ian O'Dougherty - Polycotylus lyrics

From the sea to the east of Laramidia Within a mother lived another Polycotylus “I never left the comfort of the womb Together, we expired and found a tomb to rest in. Earth pressed in On a walk, in Kansas rock, my mother was discovered and exhumed The plaster cast and earth were then removed. The day I was uncovered, it was proved: We of Plesiosauria were viviparous Living young, given lungs, much like whales Born from water, we moved to the land Then flippers grew from legs we used to have The sea is where we came from And we learned that life was better there So we returned.”
