Little Bugs

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Under a leaf by the old stone wall A ladybug waits for the rain to fall Ants make a road through the rosemary Carrying crumbs like a family [Pre-Chorus] You lift the branch, I point and grin A little world is tucked within [Chorus] Hey, little bugs, where are you going? Across the clover, silver wings showing Round every root, through every flower Busy as clocks in a summer shower Hey, little bugs, keep moving on You make the garden hum till dawn [Verse 2] A beetle shines near the watering can A green inchworm measures my hand Crickets hide deep in the thyme out back A moth leaves dust on a window crack [Pre-Chorus] The smallest feet leave trails to read Each one has somewhere else to be [Chorus] Hey, little bugs, where are you going? Across the clover, silver wings showing Round every root, through every flower Busy as clocks in a summer shower Hey, little bugs, keep moving on You make the garden hum till dawn [Bridge] When the porch light fades and the kettle cools You vanish beneath the garden tools Tomorrow morning, I’ll look again For tiny travelers, my six-legged friends [Final Chorus] Hey, little bugs, where are you going? Across the clover, silver wings showing Round every root, through every flower Busy as clocks in a summer shower Hey, little bugs, keep moving on You make the garden hum till dawn [Outro] Under a leaf by the old stone wall A little world is waking when nightbirds call
