Oh little bug in the sink, You can’t swim, You just crawl and explore, You question, why am I in the sink? I saw the bug in the sink, As I brushed my teeth, I noticed him scampering about, Wondering — how do I get out of the sink? You weren’t hurting me, bug in the sink, You just wanted an escape, Away from the dangers of the water, A bad place to be if you can’t swim - bug in the sink. But when I saw the bug in the sink, I acted only on impulse, The contrast between ***** bug and “cleaning teeth” Was too much to bare, as I stared in the sink. And so without thinking of the bug in the sink, My reflexes thrusted me forward, I thought only of myself, As I turned the **** on the sink. Oh no — oh bug in the sink, The water is gushing, You’re overwhelmed, swept away, crushed. Oh bug in the sink. Why did I not think?

Bug in the Sink
Oh little bug in the sink, You can’t swim, You just crawl and explore, You question, why am I in the sink? I saw the bug in the sink, As I brushed my teeth, I noticed him scampering about, Wondering — how do I get out of the sink? You weren’t hurting me, bug in the sink, You just wanted an escape, Away from the dangers of the water, A bad place to be if you can’t swim - bug in the sink. But when I saw the bug in the sink, I acted only on impulse, The contrast between ***** bug and “cleaning teeth” Was too much to bare, as I stared in the sink. And so without thinking of the bug in the sink, My reflexes thrusted me forward, I thought only of myself, As I turned the **** on the sink. Oh no — oh bug in the sink, The water is gushing, You’re overwhelmed, swept away, crushed. Oh bug in the sink. Why did I not think?
