I went to a ball the other day,
We had such a feast!
There was Caterpillar pie, butterfly Wings
Bread and Butter Beasts, ants on sticks
earwig Cake,
Everything was fine
It tasted smashing and great
And of cause, not forgetting
The Centipede Jelly.
All that lovely food, felt rather good in my belly.

The sun was shinning, it was nice and hot
Then someone came around with a pot
Of Black Beetle Juice.

There was a curly worm on the side of the glass,
Just to give the drink a bit of class.
There were banners scattered around,
there were balloons blowing in the wind.
There were magpies sitting in the trees
and then they started to sneeze,
In time to the music,
There was dancing, laughter too
There were jokes, I told Quite a few,

Then the food came out again,
We had some Green Frog Spawn Mouse
With maggots on the side,

This was served on a bed of grass
everybody gobbled it down and eat it quite fast
because the maggots kept sliding off the leaf it was served upon
and landing on the floor.

I think, everyone there really did enjoy what they had
So,
They had a little bit more.

But, the end must always arrive
This was a sad time for all,
I really hope next year
I am invited again
to that Ball.
