Roaches Roaches Everywhere!
Why are theses roaches everywhere?
How did they get here?
Why should I care?
I am a clean person yet still I share with them…
Food, water anything they want
Roaches are everywhere!
Roaches don’t care about kids
Roaches don’t care about economic status
Roaches live within us all
Fighting to survive an impossible fight
Exterminator or not they live!
Nuclear war or not they will live!
Roaches are a lot like me
Inside looking for a place to make their own
A place that finally they can call home.
