"Hey There Little Insect" lyrics - JONATHAN RICHMAN AND THE MODERN LOVERS

Hey there, little insect, don't scare me so.
Don't land on me, and bite me no.
Hey there, little insect, please calm down.
And we'll have fun and fool around.

I say, hey there, little insect, don't scare me so.
Don't land on me, baby, and bite me no.
I say hey there, little insect, please calm down.
Then we'll have fun and fool around.

I say, hey there, little praying mantis, I have one complaint.
Each time on my arm you landed, it makes me faint.
I say, hey there, little insect, please calm down.
Then we'll have fun and fool around.

Well now, I don't want to worry there, insect, I don't want to fight.
Hey there, little insect.
Hey there, little insect.
I don't want to worry about an insect bite.
Hey there, little insect.
Hey there, little insect.
See, I don't want to worry, so please calm down.
Then we'll have fun and fool around.

I say, hey there, little hornet, buzzing around me.
It sounds like a warning, and it kind of scares me.
Well, hey there, little insect, please calm down.
So we can have fun and fool around.

See, I don't want to worry there, insect, I do not want to fight.
Hey there, little insect.
Hey there, little insect.
I don't even want to worry about an insect bite.
Hey there, little insect.
Hey there, little insect.
See I don't want to worry, so please calm down
So we can have fun and fool around.
