I was coming home, it was late one night.
I opened the door just in time, to see him.
As long as a lizard as tall as a toad.
As ugly as sin and twice as bold.
You got them cockroach blues.
I went next door for a can of Raid.
Came back with a flame thrower, no I ain't afraid, of you.
Tougher than nails you'll survive a nuke.
Crawl through my oatmeal, you make me puke.
You're giving me those old waterbug blues.
He ran under my desk, to spend the night.
He ain't 'fraid of me and he likes the light, in his eyes.
Prowl around my toaster; carry it off on your back.
If I had a feline, you'd eat my cat.
I got them cockroach blues.
I woke up early to plan my attack.
I found him in the fridge trying to drink my six-pack. But no bug's wiser, than me.
I chased him cross my room out into the hall.
He winked at me, said "I'll see you next fall!"
"Cause you got them, you got them cockroach blues!"
