Remember this apocalyptic day
When acid rain laid mighty creatures prone
The brand-new serpent casts its skin away
They watched as twilight ripped the sun astray
The blood-red sky and blazing mountains shone
Remember this apocalyptic day
The late Cretaceous terrors will decay
The green-gold scales of glory turn to stone
The brand-new serpent casts its skin away
Did all the fallen have a debt to pay?
Will life be better now they’re overthrown?
Remember this apocalyptic day
Your feathers stand on end as you dismay
You carry them in every hollow bone
The brand-new serpent casts its skin away
Your dying class in obsoletion lay
And you, their only bastion, spared alone
Remember this apocalyptic day
The brand-new serpent casts its skin away
