The author is not making any claims that the Komodo Monitor is by any means a true dinosaur but if he is not then he is missing a good chance to be. Just read this for the fun of it and let's not get into a diatribe of the likeliness that this animal is in any way a true dinosaur. He is just the last living species that is closest IMO to the dinosaur.


So, where come you from Komodo?
Was not 'til 1910 did anyone know that you exist.
Are you a tiny-saur Komodo?
You go hunting by yourself near awfully sunny Myanmar.
Out your mouth the hissin' comes,
And sound your big ears nearly can't hear near or far.

A dino monster you, Komodo?
In the hour that the planet went your kin eternity,
But you were saved, Komodo.
They were done and lost their life, and dinosaurus all did die,
But you held your claim and stayed,
Where dinosaurs were standin' you still hunt and lie.

Must be something in your genes just right,
You won the fight, Komodo.
You are standing there for all to see,
Not history, Komodo.
Though it should have been that you would lose,
You're still here yet.
If it happened just the same again,
Would you get dead, Komodo?

If it happened just the same again,
Would you get dead, Komodo?

But you're here to stay, Komodo,
And back so many years you were not stifled by God's Hand.
You did not succumb, Komodo.
You did not befall the plight that fell that caused your kins' last stand.
As each dino falls and dies,
Allowed you were to bite and eat 'the dead on land.

Was there something in the air that night?
That spared your plight, Komodo?
They're remaining there for you and me,
Not history, Komodo.
Why this dino did the Maker choose,
Just one he spared,
To be here yet.
Did He leave one there to show to men,
Why did not end, Komodo?

There was nothing made them bear the plight,
Came through the night, Komodo.
Still their lining moves through history,
Beat destiny, Komodo.
But the theory bought said they should lose,
But, they're here yet.
How would scientists explain this then?
Why are there then, Komodo?

How would scientists explain this then?
Why are there then, Komodo?

Pip - That kind of line would have been learned from the M&P writing style - no wonder you liked it. Thanks.

Pat - I've been fairly busy - I did catch your parody today. I typoed the word "paining" that was meant to say "painting" but I know that you read right through typos. I did do a bit of research before I wrote this. I read an entire Wiki article on it and it seemed credable, plus some facts I already knew on it helped or were confirmed by the Wiki article. I awoke that morning at 3:00AM - read the article, knocked out the parody, got ready for work and was on duty at 5:45AM.

Farce - Not as unique getting it as you may think. I was looking to do ABBA's "Fernando". I found the word in a wildcard search using onelook.com. Thanks, buddy.

Alvin - yes they are but my research says they become quite tame in captivity. Just the same I wouldn't get near one. They have so much bacteria in their teeth from terminal gingivitis that it gets killer toxic if one is biten and if it is not treated properly. Komodos are known to bite their prey and follow it for days until the animal expires from infection from the bite. They are mostly scavangers and feed mainly on carrion, however.

M'Lady, I have heard that before - can't say for sure if it is true but he would have had a very swollen foot and in much pain. Just think M'Lady there are still dragons that can be slain in your honour, but alas the magistrates have declared them endangered and the offender could be shackled and jailed for such misdemeanor of folly offensivenes. Thanks for your comment.

Merry - Just going back over all the parodies I commented on since Thursday. Somehow I missed thanking you on this one. And I may have also learned backward lines from M&P just as I told Pip about "Tiny Saur". Thanks for your comment, Merry and sorry I missed you on the first go 'round.

The author of the parody has authorized comments, and wants YOUR feedback.
