Strange fear I have had for years
The bug's coming and I'm close to tears
I can't let go of my fear

Imagination's playing round for free
In my fright I lose control and pee
Oh my God, please help me

Skipping heart beats, gasps for air
I just had to get out of bed
I have bug-phobia, I feel dead.

Bugs come I sure know their destination
They're my one-way ticket to a madman's institution.
Bugs come I sure know their destination
They're my one-way ticket to a madman's institution.

I shout and scream because of them
And in my sleep I think of them
And I almost wet my bed.

Basically probability
Says insects are fond of me
Maybe it's all in my head.

Bugs come I sure know their destination
They're my one-way ticket to a madman's institution.
Bugs come I sure know their destination
They're my one-way ticket to a madman's institution.

The tension is incredible, I'm not in charge
You know how I feel about them,
Will they stop, or will they just keep crawling
Please go away. Go, go, go ,go!

Bugs come I sure know their destination
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
They're my one-way ticket to a madman's institution.
(Institution)
Bugs come I sure know their destination
(I know, I know)
They're my one-way ticket to a madman's institution.
(Institution)

Bugs come I sure know their destination
(I don't feel safe in bed)
They're my one-way ticket to a madman's institution.
(Institution)
Bugs come I sure know their destination
(I know, I know)
They're my one-way ticket to a madman's institution.
(Got me feeling bad)
