[Intro – Scat Style with Brass Hits] Ba-da-zing zap! Skidda-bop slap! Creepy little critters on a radroach map— Skiddley-bugga-boo, what crawled on my stew?! Oh lordy, that ain’t no kangaroo! [Verse 1 – Smooth & Jumpin'] Well I was struttin' by a shack in the edge of the Glade, When a Bloatfly buzzed me like a frag grenade. That stinger came in singin’, hummin’ real proud, I ducked, I rolled, I screamed out loud! Then a Bloodbug swooped, suckin’ plasma and sass, Slurpin' like a milkshake through radioactive glass. Bzzzz-bop goes the needle, like a jazz solo scream, You ain't lived till a bug taps your bloodstream. [Chorus – Big Band Swing, Call & Response] (Call) Boogie with the bugs, bounce with the bite! (Response) Skee-bop baby, they don’t play nice! (Call) Scat with the stingers, bop with the wings, (Response) In the Fallout night, even roaches swing! [Verse 2 – Quicker, With Tap Drum Shuffle] Radroaches crawlin’ in my silverware drawer, Dancin’ like they own my shelter floor. Tried to stomp ‘em, but they just jive, Multiplying like jazz cats in overdrive! Stingwings in the sky, all teeth and tail, Lookin' like a wasp on a chemical trail. Zap and flap, that venom’s mean— Slingin' pain like a trumpet on caffeine. [Bridge – Scat Solo, Half-Spoken Jazz Rant] Scoobiddy bop, what’s that buzz? Ant Swarms chewin’ on my Sunday fuzz! Fire ants spit, yeah they spit, it’s true, Flamin’ your britches while you’re tyin’ your shoe! Don’t forget the Mutant Mantises, long and lean, Choppin’ through flesh like a saxophone scream! Click-clack-tickity-tack— I turned my back, and they hit like a stack! [Final Chorus – Full Swing with a Wink] Boogie with the bugs, oh they jitter and jive, If you ain’t dancin’, you ain’t alive. Bzzz-bap-badooo, it’s a Fallout sting, So shake them shoes and let the Geiger sing! [Outro – Slow Fade, Whispery Scat] Skiddley-diddle zap zap zap... Baby don’t nap when the roaches tap... Scooby-doo sting, who’s crawlin’ next? If it’s got more than six legs—I’m perplexed.
