Bug

(album: Speedboats For Breakfast - 2004)

I'm a bug
In this rancid bordello town
I'm a bug
And I'm really bugging out

I'm a bug
In this tainted bordello hell
I'm a bug
In this hideous, wriggling shell

I move scarab-infected
I move in many forms
Abandoned and neglected
An island in the swarm

I'm a bug
With these rheumy, yellowing eyes
I'm a bug
Don't let them bed-bugs bite

I've been slithering 'round this citadel
On all eights at all hours
Like a slug in flaccid palaces
And moth-eaten towers

I'm a bug
In this flea-bit, back-water town
I'm a bug
And I'm really wigging out

Ladybug, oh ladybug
What did you spurn me for
I was skulking, now I'm sulking
'Cause my love crawled out the door

I'm a bug
When you're all busted up in the ground
I'm a bug
I'll still be creeping around
I'm a bug
And I'll still be creeping around
