Oh my gosh we used to laugh about this song in the 'olden days'.....Lyrics from "Insects" and written by Danny Elfman:
Flying insects everywhere
Flying insects buzzing buzzing buzzing through the air
Just like little diamonds in the sky
Insects buzzing in my eye
Buzzing insects make me want to dance dance dance
They make me want to dance . . .
Insects crawling all around
Insects squirming in the ground
Insects gooey squeaky chewy
Should I eat them--no
I'd rather stomp them hurt them stomp
Stomp them while I dance dance dance

Hello
how are you doing
See him singing in the movie "back to school." Hear him singing for Jack Skellington in "the Nightmare Before Christmas."
