Verse
B F#7
Once a lonely caterpillar sat and cried
B
To a sympathetic beetle by his side
F#7
I've got nobody to hug
B
I'm such an ug-i-ly bug
B F#7
Then a spider and a dragonfly replied
B G#m
If you're serious and want to win a bride
B F#7 B
Come along with us, to the glorious annual ugly bug ball
[Chorus]
B E
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
B
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
E F# B E B
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
[Verse 2]
B F#7
While the crickets click their cricky melodies
B
All the ants were fancy dancing with the fleas
F#7
Then up from under the ground
B
The worms came squirming around
B F#7
Oh they danced until their legs were nearly lame
B G#m
Every little crawling creature you could name
B
Everyone was glad, what a time they had
F#7 B
They were so happy they came
[Chorus]
B E
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
B
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
E F# B E B
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
[Verse 3]
B F#7
Then our caterpillar saw a pretty queen
B
She was beautiful and yellow black and green
F#7
He said would you care to dance
B
Their dancing lead to romance
B F#7
Then she sat upon his caterpillar knee
B G#m
And he gave his caterpillar queen a squeeze
B
Soon they'll honeymoon, build a big cocoon
F#7 B
Thanks to the ugly bug ball
[Chorus]
B E
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
B
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
E F# B E B
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
