The Smithsonian Institute Blues (or The Big Dig) Lyrics - Sun Zoom Spark: 1970-1972 - Captain Beefheart

Come on down t' the big dig 

Come on down t' the big dig 

Come on t' the big dig 

Singin' the Smithsonian Institute blues 

Singin' the Smithsonian Institute blues 

The way it's goin' La Brea tar pits 

I know you just can't lose 

The new dinosaur is walkin' in the old one's shoes 

Come on down t' the big dig 

Can't get around the big dig 

This may be premature but if I'm wrong 

You can just say it's the first time I was happy t' be confused 

Singin' the Smithsonian Institute blues 

Alll you new dinosaurs 

Now it's up t' you t' choose 

It sure looks funny for a new dinosaur 

T' be in an old dinosaur's shoes 

Dina Shore's shoes 

Dinosaur shoes 

C'mon down to the big dig 

You can't get around the big dig 

C'mon to the big dig 

Ya can't get around the big dig 

Singin' the Smithsonian Institute blues
