The Egyptian Bowl Weevil Dance

If you see a bowl weevil move,
If you see a bowl weevil prance,
It is probably this bug doing
The Egyptian bowl weevil dance

If by some happening,
You happen to see
A bowl weevil dancing 
It just might be

If he’s bouncing all around,
All around by some chance
It’s the bowl weevil doing
His little Egyptian Dance

If you hear something,
A right jolly little sound
Listen really closely
And look all around

When you find the noise,
With the pass of a glance
Watch the bowl weevil do
His little bowl weevil dance

So feel the joy
That the bowl weevil brings
As he jumps about
And as he sings

Roll up the legs,
The legs of your pants
And join the bowl weevil doing 
The Egyptian bowl weevil dance
