Let me tell you bout a friend of mine

His name is boll weevil, check him out



Spends all day

On his big butt

And he don't ever, ever get outside

I come to visit,

I bring some sunshine

And I just spread it all over the fire

He's stuck on his big couch

Stuck in his big show

He looks at the tv and he's all right

I come from the drug lord

The local drug store

(bug is supplied) and he's never uptight



And I wonder:

'boll weevil, why don't you get out of your home? '



Said, 'i'm comfortable here'

Don't wanna move, don't wanna leave

I said, 'boll weevil, get right out of your home.'



Goodbye, I gotta stay

I will some other day

Bye bye, gotta go to sleep

And let the tube shine

Let the tube shine

Let the tube shine

Let the tube shine



Now, I would tell you bout boll weevil

But that bug is just too scary

He's sittin' there all alone

I try to coach him out, but he would not (try surprise)

But he would not move a muscle when I tried



Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside



Boll weevil, get right out of your home

Boll weevil, get right out of your home

Boll weevil, get right out of your home

Boll weevil, get right out of your home



Now, I would tell you bout boll weevil

But that bug is just too scary

He's sittin' there all alone

I try to coach him out, but he would not (drop his pies)

But he would not move a muscle when I tried



Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see that the sun is shinin' out

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Make him see the sun is shinin' outside



Come on little buggy, he's a little bug!
