Did you know that cockroaches are actually quite smart They realise we lay baits for them and have taken it to heart Those little scuttling things have hatched themselves a plan An ingenious way they've thought of, how they can get back at man
Cockroaches bankroll movies which are shown on the wide screen Where people smoke a poison, but their lips and teeth will gleam They'll be dressed in the most stunning gowns, glamour all the way But the movies never show them when those people start to pay
