I came out of the cave lookin' angry and mean Strangest animal they'd ever seen Shakin' its head, kickin' its feet To the rhythm of the hypnotic jungle beat Was it a giant they saw? Was it a dinosaur? It was a caveman He was a brave man It was a caveman Sabre-tooth skin hung around its wait Red and white clay painted on its face Up on its feet reachin' for the sky Everybody wondering why why why Was it a giant they saw? Was it a dinosaur? It was a caveman He was a brave man It was a caveman The creatures of the everglades Were taken by surprise Was this another fool Of a feature of an animal Whose make up was exceptionally wise Was it a giant they saw? Was it a dinosaur? Was it a ghoat they'd seen Lost in a time machine Were they face to face With a thing from outer space? Old reptile had watery eyes Green Pterodactyl was holding his sides Poor Godzilla couldn't follow the beat Everybody laughed and stomped their feet I rubbed a couple of sticks and the fire got it Got a little bit of dirt, started working on it Built a ship and a train and an aeroplane Before they knew it they had acid rain Was it a giant they saw? Was it a dinosaur? Was it a ghoat they'd seen Lost in a time machine Were they face to face With a thing from outer space?
