Insect-Eating Man

While other folks dine at the Ritz

I've found a place that's quite the pits

And really satisfies my dining needs

Infested with crickets and gnats

Jiggers, flukes and scallywags

Cockroaches, midges and millipedes

I'll tell you gladly, it's no secret

I see a creepy crawly, I eat it

My soup's got a fly in

And there's woodlouse in my wine

My bread has fleas on

But I can see no reason

To be shy

I'll try

To eat them if I can

Now for I'm an insect-eating man

Bedbugs in the butter

And butterflies on the cutlery

My salad's tasty

Because it contains ladybird

Absurd, you say

But I don't see it that way

Because I'm an insect-eating man

Not hard-boiled eggs, oh, but daddy long legs

Instead of Brie, a bumble bee

Buzz buzz buzz

Forget burritos, give me mosquitoes

No broth, just moth

Ants all over my lamb shanks

And ticks on my asparagus tips

A smattering of weevil

Well, I know you think I'm evil

But believe, I'm not

They were hiding in the pepper pot

They all larvae (love an) insect eating man

Not hard boiled eggs, no, but daddy long legs

Instead of Brie, a bumble bee

Forget burritos, give me mosquitoes

No broth, just moth

One last time

Aside from honey, what do honeybees make?

A crunchy base for an insect cheesecake

Topped with beetles in their jelly

Which I prefer to black cherry

Very quaint, for sure

But now I'll eat some more

Just like an insectivore

Because I'm an insect-eating man

Oh yes I am

All together now

I'm an insect-eating man

Antenna fan

I'm an insect-eating man
