Texas is seeing a lot of insects right now. Thanks to recent rain, mosquitoes are especially prevelant. That was Typewriter Rodeo’s Sean Petrie’s inspiration this week.
BUGS
A tiny buzzing
In my ear
How can one small thing
Cause so much fear?
Where is it now?
I’ll find it yet
I should’ve bought
A mosquito net
‘Cuz that little bugger
Is somewhere close
Oh there it is!
Oh no, my nose!
Holy cow that’s crazy
I’ve gotta itch!
Hey I’m just scratching —
It’s not a pick!
