I'm a caterpillar
I'm a caterpillar
Crawling for your love
Crawling for your love
Crawling for your love,
For your love.
I'm a butterfly
I'm a butterfly
Flying for your love
Flying for your love
Flying for your love,
For your love.
Well, I'll be anything that you want me to be.
Baby, I'd even would be a-climbing up your tree.
I'm a pterodactyl
I'm a pterodactyl
Dying for your love
Dying for your love
Dying for your love
For your love.
I'm an abominable snowman
I'm an abominable snowman
Calling for your love
Calling for your love
Calling for your love
For your love.
Well now baby, I'll be anything that you want me to be,
Baby, a big monkey, a little monkey, a chimpanzee.
Oh now,
I'm a caterpillar
I'm a caterpillar
Falling for your love
Falling for your love
Falling for your love
For your love.
Oh baby,
Falling for your love
Falling for your love
Falling for your love
For your love.
Falling for your love
Falling for your love
Falling for your love
For your love.
