The Lyrics

Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me,
They are buzzing, and the mosquitoes are biting too
Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me
But beware the spider tangle as it may ensnare you

The fire ant's great empire has been established on my land
Stinging up my hand
Left me sprinkling toxic poisons in the evening
Their tenacity amazes me, I'm welted on my feet
From ants and wasps and bees
And the ancient, dusty attic is now teeming

Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me,
They are buzzing, and the mosquitoes are biting too
Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me
But beware the spider tangle as it may ensnare you

They fly into the blue glow with a sharp electric zip
The bug zapper is tripped, the roaches lose their grip
Termites eat up my steps, there are flies in all of my meals
My health they're squandering
The bugs follow me everywhere, I need a can of Raid
Or a bug bomb grenade, with some poison aerosol spray
That requires a permit

Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me,
They are buzzing, and the mosquitoes are biting too
Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me
But beware the spider tangle as it may ensnare you

Use your x-rays and your poisons and sonic radiation
Until the bugs have been outdone, and are dead or on the run
And there is a cloud in the sky from fumigation
And if you hear at midnight one last cicada's whine
Get Terminex on the line, until there are no bugs to find
Or I have paid with my last dime, it's just a cricket you're
Hearing that I'm macing

Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me,
They are buzzing, and the mosquitoes are biting too
Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me
But beware the spider tangle as it may ensnare you

Now the bugs are disappearing as are the cobwebs in my blinds
The silence is so sublime, as all the sweet ants leave
My kitchen and pantry, I'll kill the last of them with bleach
A shot of Windex for each, I have no sorrow.
Yes, to sleep inside my bedroom with no mosquito netting,
No exoskeleton banshees being crushed between my hands
The Roach motel shall be their fate, the poisoned box their final grave
Until every last one returns tomorrow

Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me,
They are buzzing, and the mosquitoes are biting too
Hey! Mr. Terminex Man, kill these bugs for me
But beware the spider tangle as it may ensnare you
