Oh a caterpillar crawls around His tummy rubs along the ground But you're bound to get a big surprise 'Cause they grow up into butterflies
And how are you Mr. Grasshopper? Very hoppy?
A grasshopper will leap and hop You wonder does it ever stop They're the kind of insect you might see Eating grass beneath a shady tree
It's a cricket! Look!
Now crickets are those chirpy things To make that noise they rub their wings If you hear that noise the chance is good There's a cricket in your neighbourhood
And there it is in the thicket! A cricket in the thicket! Hi Mr. Bee, looking for your honey?
A honeybee will buzz around Wherever flowers can be found They will look for nectar they can take So that honey they can later make
You'll find that ants are everywhere They always crawl from here to there They're little but they're very strong And they like to work the whole day long
So these are the insects in your neighbourhood In your neighbourhood, in your neighbourhood Yes these are the insects in your neighbourhood They're the insects that you meet When you're walking down the street They're the insects that you meet each day!
