Los Lobos - The Ugly Bug Ball lyrics

Once a lonely caterpillar sat and cried To a sympathetic beetle by his side I've got nobody to hug I'm such an ugly bug Then a spider and a dragonfly replied If you're serious and want to win a bride Come along with us to the glorious annual ugly bug ball Come on let's crawl, crawl, crawl To the ugly bug ball And a happy time we'll have, one and all At the ugly bug ball While the crickets click their cricky melodies And the ants were fancy dancing with the fleas Then up from under the ground The worms came squirming around And they danced until their legs were nearly lame Every little crawling creature you could name Everyone was glad What a time they had They were so happy they came Come on let's crawl, crawl, crawl To the ugly bug ball And a happy time we'll have, one and all At the ugly bug ball Then the caterpillar saw a pretty queen She was beautiful yellow black and green He said would you care to dance Their dancing led to romance Then she sat upon his caterpillar knee And he gave his caterpillar queen a squeeze Soon they'll honeymoon Build a big cocoon Thanks to the ugly bug ball Come on let's crawl, crawl, crawl To the ugly bug ball And a happy time we'll have, one and all At the ugly bug ball Come on let's crawl, crawl, crawl To the ugly bug ball And a happy time we'll have, one and all At the ugly bug ball
