Do you fear me?,
Do you scare?,
( Repeat )
There's creatures wriggling under everybody's grass,
You used to catch 'em & go hook a big-mouth bass,
But now pollution's bad,
And so the fish are all dead.
Take an old car battery & hook it to the ground, ack!
They'll all be jumpin' out & squirmin' all around,
It's just a ton of meat, For the early bird.
What are worms for?,
When no one's fishin' any more,
What are worms for?,
When no one's fishin',
What are worms for?,
When no one's fishin', it's no use catchin' them all.
I might as well go out & grab me a pole,
And take it down to the old fishing hole,
Where the ducks hang out,
And the turtles there too.
If I cast the sinker way out in the wrong direction, quack!
The ducks & geese will pay a little more attention,
It's a funny thing, I do for myself.
( Chorus )
The frogs swim by, the worm's dead body,
The pollywogs all swoon,
The glow worms glow,
The moss is thick, so I keep hopin'
Some big old cat will jump up & nail it,
But they're all dead,
So it's almost time to go now, time to go now, time to go now, now, now, now, now....
I hear them things can eat a whole lot of dirt,
I tried it once myself, & man, it really hurt,
It's stomache ache,
That doesn't stop 'til you poop.
They crawl right in & out of dead peoples' sheets, ouch!
And play a funny game of cards underneath,
So the story goes, I think I'll eat a bug!
( Chorus )
