T-Wreckx-n-Effect
Rap-inspired poem for Poemosaurus Rex Challenge
Yo, I'm mother effing Tyrannosaurus Rex
Just look at my sexy green scaly pecs
The Laramidian mighty predator apex
Tho' I got tiny brains, tiny hands
when I march through my lands
No ankylosaur or ceratopsian stands
They say I was the greatest
They say I was the toughest
Steppin' to me, prepare for the ruckus
So, keep your cup of water
close to your son and daughter
Follow Dr. Alan Grant, the miser
Watch your step, buddy
'fore things get bloody
I'll bite you down to size and they'll call you stubby
Listen, pal, don't take this the wrong way
I may be dead, buried, fossilised, okay?
But my mere image gives you chills, okay
Even with this lazy rhyme, I'm doing okay
Instead of coming at me, with your yappin’
Its backwards you oughta be swiftly steppin’
or your tasty fleshy body I'll be poppin’!
So, your position at my feet, please assume
as John Williams plays my kingly theme tune
And prepare to meet your untimely grisly doom
T to the R e x
Tyrannical s e x
On two legs, I wreckx

I just came across this and it gave me a good laugh! Great job, Paul! It reminds me of the "Raptor Rap" scene in Mrs. Doubtfire when Robin Williams raps about dinosaurs 😂 I love it!
So playful! I love this take on the challenge!!
I love this. Too funny! I was so happy John Williams and Alan were referenced! 😂👏
Hahahahahhahahaha this had me laughing so much! Loved this! 🍩🥐
Yo I wrote mines as a rap too. 🤣🤣🤣Looks like it’s competition on deck, great bars.
This was amazing. The first line opens so hard and the rest moves perfectly to its beat. Great job!
Paul this was fantastic!!! I love the old school feel of this!! Them Dinos be stompin' cause that beat was poppin'!!!!! 😅 Great work as always my friend!!
Freakin’ brilliant, Paul. Top story stuff, for sure!
Sexy green scaly pecs. Brilliant.
Fabulous!! What if… Jurassic Park becomes real? They found DNA in amber …. I think it would be cool - but humans would call out the big guns like for Godzilla and The Day the Earth Stood Still (original movie is still better!!) ❣️❣️Loved it!
A rapper dinosaur, how lovely! I can definitely see him in baggy trousers and a rapper's cap, swaying with a mic in his tiny hand!
