The Ugly Bug Ball (アグリー・バグ・ボール(『夏の魔術』より)) - Burl Ives

Written by：Richard M. Sherman/Robert B. Sherman

Once a lonely caterpillar sat and cried

To a sympathetic beetle by his side

I've got nobody to hug

I'm such an ugly bug

Then a spider and a dragonfly replied

If you're serious and want to win a bride

Come along with us to the glorious annual ugly bug ball

Come on let's crawl

Gotta crawl gotta crawl

To the ugly bug ball

To the ball to the ball

And a happy time we'll have there

One and all at the ugly bug ball

While the crickets clicked their cricky melodies

All the ants were fancy dancing with the fleas

Then up from under the ground

The worms came squirming around

Oh they danced until their legs were nearly lame

Every little crawling creature you could name

Everyone was glad what a time they had

They were so happy they came

Come on let's crawl

To the ugly bug ball

And a happy time we'll have there

One and all at the ugly bug ball

Then our caterpillar saw a pretty queen

She was beautiful in yellow black and green

He said would you care to dance

Their dancing led to romance

Then she sat upon his caterpillar knees

And he gave his caterpillar queen a squeeze

Soon they'll honeymoon build a big cocoon

Thanks to the ugly bug ball

Come on let's crawl

Gotta crawl gotta crawl

To the ugly bug ball

To the ball to the ball

And a happy time we'll have there

One and all at the ugly bug ball
