Hey there, little insect, don't scare me so
Don't land on me, baby, and bite me, no
Hey there, little insect, please calm down
So we can have fun and fool around
ย
Hey there, little praying mantis, I've one complaint
Each time on my arm you land, it makes me faint
Hey there, little insect-sect, please calm down
So we can have fun and fool around
ย
Look here
I don't want to worry now, Mr. Insect
I don't want to fight
(Hey there, little insect) I don't (hey there, little insect) I don't
I don't want to worry about a potential insect bite
(Hey there, little insect, hey there, little insect)
And I don't want to worry, so please calm down
That we can have fun and fool a-round
ย
Now, hey there, little hornet, buzzing around me
It sounds like a warning, and it's scaring me
Hey there, little insect, please calm down
So we can have fun and fool around
ย
Now, I don't want to worry, insect
I do not want to bite
(Hey there, little insect, hey there, little insect) I'll be fine
Well, I don't even want to worry about a potential insect bite
(Hey there, little insect) I don't (hey there, little insect) no way
Now, I don't want to worry, so please calm down
So we can have fun and fool 'round
ย
