little bugs
Im sorry that we fell
and made your tiny lives
like a living hell
unwelcome everywhere
on the porch or on the stair
hiding under rugs
oh my little bugs
no one wants you near
that is crystal clear
creeping things God made
in His vast parade
do you late at night
wish he'd made you starlight, starlight
somewhere in the sky
later bye and bye
you will find a home
not be made to roam
no more Raid
sprayed and sprayed
happy in the shade
near the ice cream tubs
the berries on the shrubs
oh my tiny cherubs, cherubs
crowned and crowned anew
for all the things you do
faster than a cheetah, a cheetah
bob and wave again
sashay with no sin
round the racing track
of my favorite tea tray, tea tray
and all you ever dreamed
the froth upon the cream
kettle steam for you
welcome where you are
flawless as a star
oh my dearie bugs
you were made by Love.
