The Bug Song Lyrics - Singles - Stompin Tom

Now when the good ole holidays roll around 

I'm the kind of a guy that likes to be found 

Just takin it easy and layin around -doin nothin. 

But I take my chair and sit on the lawn, 

And just when all my cares are gone 

About a million bugs start carryin on, and I'm cussin- 

Some caterpillar from up some tree decides as far as he can see 

There's nothin to do but to fall on me-the damn worm 

And a dirty ole fly just makin it clear 

That he ain't had a bath for over a year 

So he's takin one now in my glass of beer to lose germs 

Chorus: 

Bugs Bugs Bugs, If I had them all in jugs 

I'd dig dig dig, till a big big hole was dug dug dug dug-- 

And that would be the end of the bug song...repeat 

Well I try to sleep when I get the chance 

But you just can't trust them cursed ants 

They're never satisfied till they're in your pants and you're crawlin 

With a spider web right across the face 

I'm lookin around for a better place 

Till a couple of hornets take up the chase and I'm howlin! 

Well I head for the house and I hold my breath 

Till I find some stuff in the medicine chest, 

For the welts I got on the spot you guessed-where I'm sittin... 

And the wife gets mad cause I forgot 

To get stuff for the fleas our kitten caught 

Off some old dog on the neighbours lot and she's rippin... 

Chorus: 

Well I chased that moth from the middle drawer 

That chewed the clothes I useta wore 

And I jammed my thumb on the bedroom door tryin to catch 'im 

And I'm sure the mosquitoes all know their skill 

Cause one pryed up my windowsill 

And he limped through the air with a broken drill and I'm scratchin. 

You might think I'm a little bit rough 

Cause I don't take to that nature stuff 

But I think I've just about had enough of them bugs. 

Now your backyard might be okay, 

But I'm goin down to buy some spray 

Cause my little place is walkin away with them bugs... 

Chorus: 

That would be the end of the bug song 

I'm gonna dig dig dig, dig dig dig dig dig dig .....
