Lyrics

 * I'm a caterpillar, I get no respect
 * People say I'm just a grubby-chubby insect
 * Pollen, pesticide, food denied
 * Brushed aside, stepped on by shoes
 * I've got the little-leggy-lumpy-looking
 * Lettuce-lunching lonely larva blues


 * I crawl really slow, I've got too many feet
 * I'm hungry all the time, all I do is eat
 * They say I'm a pest, I have passed
 * Like the rest, and look at me with ooze
 * I've got the backbones bug-bashing bird-biding bad bug blues


 * But things won't be like this when I spin my chrysalis
 * Come out as a beautiful butterfly
 * They'll see my pretty wings and my new antenna things
 * I'll be way up high when I fly (yeah!)


 * (instrumental break)


 * But things won't be like this with my metamorphosis
 * I'll be a beautiful butterfly
 * They'll see my pretty wings and my new antenna things
 * I'll be way up high when I fly


 * Yes, I'm a caterpillar, I get no respect
 * But all of that will change, I'll be a brand new insect
 * No more pesticide, food denied
 * Brushed aside, stepped on by shoes
 * But until then I've got lonely larva caterpillar blues


 * (Look out world, here I come!)
