TurtleFrogMan - Bugs

When I was small
I saw bugs on my wall
In my bed they would crawl
I curled up in a ball

Were I not only four
I would have certainly swore
On a stack of bibles many feet tall

But as it turns out
There were really no bugs there at all

Bugs, Bugs I saw hundreds of bugs
I was crazy, my parents both feared
Bugs, Bugs I saw hundreds of bugs
And then one day they just disappeared

And then in my teens
I wore t shirts and jeans
And I was nervous which means
The sweat flows and careens

My classmates all joked
That my t shirt was soaked
With underarm sweat no shirt screens

And how you look is crucial
Because each and Every teenager preens

Sweat, Sweat lots of underarm sweat
embarrassing needless to say
Sweat, Sweat lots of underarm sweat
And then one day it just went away

And then as a man
I had a financial plan
I'll save what I can
In my working life span

But it was really a struggle
With all the debts that you juggle
And you have to provide for your Clan

And what fun is life
If every thing that costs money you ban?

Debts, Debts lots of backbreaking debts
I lay awake at night deathly afraid
Debts, Debts lots of backbreaking debts
And then one day they all had been paid

And then I was old
And my grandkids I'd scold
They were not well controlled
They destroyed our household

They never wiped their damn feet
And They pissed on the toilet seat
They never did as they were told

I should have shown them more love
But instead I was distant and cold

Kids, Kids lots of rambunctious kids
The furniture climbing upon
Kids, Kids lots of rambunctious kids
And then one day they had all gone

And then I had died
In a grave am I lied
In a coffin inside
No air would abide

If you don't know yet you soon will
You can watch your own funeral
I rose above it and upon mine I spied

And my handsome young grandsons
Stood there and neither one of them cried

Bugs, Bugs I see thousands of bugs
They've gnawed from the outer to the inner
Bugs, Bugs I see thousands of bugs
And then one day, they had me for dinner
