the termite song

verse 1
Dm
i been sharpening my forks and poking at your cat
C Dm
i’ve been tasting your love letters and throwing up in your hat

chorus
A# C F Dm
i’ve been hiding in your walls and plotting with your mouse
Dm A Dm
i Am hungry and i’m gonna eat your house

verse 2
i’ve been dancing with your shadow all over your bug light
singing in your sprinkler and building up an appetite

bridge
A Dm A Dm
some houses are made of stone while some are made of brick
A# F A
but when i’m through with yours you’d have thought it was built from used toothpicks

verse 3
i’ve seen rats in your kitchen roaches in your sink
you ought to see your kitty crying every time i give a wink

verse 4
been making long distance crawls from your bed to your telephone
watching you undress when you think that you’re alone

verse 5
i’ve been sleeping with your daughter once you’ve tucked her in at night
when you hear her sobbing i’ve been screaming “let the bed bugs bite”
