Big Bug

Black, black track
Black track steel gray train
Along the big vein across the big leaf
Cold, cold steel larva
Its edges warm edges
Its way across the big leaf
Air, aircraft engines menace
The black track steel train
Says hello to many brothers
Digging holes to save the others
On the big red leaf big bug
On the big red leaf big bug
Big bug
Black leather badge shouldered
Hoot tooting duty boys
In the right place at the right time
Saved the nibbler stayed in the line
Its bristles with arms
And legs didn't sleep at night
Derailed all failed
Derailed all failed
And rattled the bug on its vein
And rattled the bug on its vein
Around the world five times
Around the world five times
Around the world five times
Around the world five times
Around the world five times
A victim of crimes
A victim of crimes
A victim of crimes
A victim of crimes
And the white cabbages all took a dive
And the big red leaf was still alive
And after two years the big bug curled
And rested after eating its world
And out popped
And out popped
And out popped
And out popped
And out popped
And out popped
And out popped
A fly
