about

This song is about various genera of Erythrosuchidae (meaning "red crocodiles") like Erythrosuchus and Chalishevia, which were large, carnivorous thecodonts.

lyrics

Chalishevia, Fugusuchus
Garjainia, Guchengosuchus
Vjushkovia, Shansisuchus
genera Erythrosuchidae

The top of the food chain
in the early-middle Triassic
kannemeyeriid dicynodonts
were their main prey

Hiding in the vegetation
ambushing and scavenging
a massive gigantic skull
long half the size of their body

Potent jaws and teeth
which put fear even in the
eyes of the other predators
Erythrosuchus africanus

A primitive crocodile
vermillion digitigrade
clade Archosaurformes
a Thecodont no more
