Was it something that I spilt on my new continental quilt or what?
Could it have been a bad dream that creptin bed & made me scream or what?
What attracted such a beast, why did it want to make a feast of me?..

[Chorus:]
Bug bug a bug a bed bug
A bug a bug a bug a bug bugger than a bumble bee
Bug bug a bug a bed bug
A bug a bug a bug a bug a bug a bug a bug bit me!
In a night of misery.

Was it coz the chocolate sweets I ate last night between the sheets or what?
What could it be that made me frown, the biscuit crumbs on my night gown or what?
A nit in neen of nourishment, it got inside the bed & went for me.

[Chorus]... [guitar bit]

Was it coz I was dirty that it took a fancy to me or what?
I jumped up sweating with fright, oh will it take another bite or what?
I felt the fangs rip thru my vest, the mattress monster was digesting me!

[Chorus]
