Lyrics | Bugs

Who has the six legs and lives everywhere -
in the sky, under logs and in dogs’ hair?
Sometimes they bite and sometimes they buzz,
most lay eggs and that’s because…

They’re bugs, bugs, ba bugs. Call them insects;
They’re bugs, bugs, ba bugs. Call them insects;
They’re bugs, bugs, ba bugs – marching ’round the world,
marching under all the eyes of watching boys and girls.

And the bees and the fleas and the hungry mosquitoes,
the butterflies and ants and gnats in your nose
grasshoppers jump hear the crickets sing
a chirp chirping song when they rub their wings.

When people see bugs, oh they often try
to step on the bugs without knowing why.
Now it’s true some insects can be bad for you,
but many insects have important work to do.

Insects help flowers. Flowers make seeds.
Insects turn dead things into dirt easily.
The frogs and the birds need insects to eat.
Insects belong in our world, like you and me.
