Well, she was pretty as a june bug, jumpy as a nerv end
And once she pulled her rug out (???), the tires started swerving
Well, I was driving through the living room, driving through the basement
Looking for the lowest spot in the pavement

Well, I was coming up for air, I heard somebody breating
It was Junie Bug praying harder than a heathen
But she was smiling like the sole survivor in a lifeboat
I said: "If I jump in, Junie, do you think this thing will still float?
'Cause
Everybody went low x 9
