The bugs that come out of nowhere
can cause me to easily flinch.
In fact, I’ll jump up in the air
if I see one come just an inch.
Things creepy and crawly – KAPUT!
The bugs that come out of nowhere
will find themselves stomped by my foot.
(Spiders have not got a prayer.)
If an insect lands in my hair,
I’ll nearly jump out of my skin.
The bugs that come out of nowhere
best flee from the room that I’m in!
I’ll swat at them furiously
once they’ve given me a great scare,
for I can’t abide close to me
the bugs that come out of nowhere!
