Verse
E B7
Once a lonely caterpillar sat and cried
E
To a sympathetic beetle by his side
B7
I've got nobody to hug
E
I'm such an ug-i-ly bug
E B7
Then a spider and a dragonfly replied
E C#m
If you're serious and want to win a bride
E B7 E
Come along with us, to the glorious annual ugly bug ball
[Chorus]
E A
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
E
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
A B E A E
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
[Verse 2]
E B7
While the crickets click their cricky melodies
E
All the ants were fancy dancing with the fleas
B7
Then up from under the ground
E
The worms came squirming around
E B7
Oh they danced until their legs were nearly lame
E C#m
Every little crawling creature you could name
E
Everyone was glad, what a time they had
B7 E
They were so happy they came
[Chorus]
E A
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
E
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
A B E A E
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
[Verse 3]
E B7
Then our caterpillar saw a pretty queen
E
She was beautiful and yellow black and green
B7
He said would you care to dance
E
Their dancing lead to romance
E B7
Then she sat upon his caterpillar knee
E C#m
And he gave his caterpillar queen a squeeze
E
Soon they'll honeymoon, build a big cocoon
B7 E
Thanks to the ugly bug ball
[Chorus]
E A
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
E
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
A B E A E
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
