GETTER BUGS vs. LITTER BUGS
TUNE: SING a SONG of SIXPENCE
Sing a song of Getter Bugs
Who pick up all the junk,
Thrown around by Litter Bugs
And smelly as a skunk!
Getter Bugs chase Litter Bugs
Away from the scene,
So streets are shining in the sun
Sidewalks are nice and clean!
Mary Carmichael is the one,
Who takes her bag around
And picks up all the ugly things
That Litter Bugs throw down!
I place in nomination
This lovely lady’s name,
As Chairman of the Getter Bugs,
To head their Hall of Fame!
