Recordings

1. Demo version.
   Recorded 8 March 1994 at Andy's home.
   Written for Disney's James and the Giant Peach but not used.
   Released on 2 December 2002 on Fuzzy Warbles Volume One in the U.K.

   Andy: “Would I like to write the songs for Disney's animated James and the Giant Peach? You bet! So excited was I, that I penned five tunes in one week. After almost a year of wrangling with der Disney reich over paltry payment (and no royalties), they went and gave the job to Randy Newman. This would have been the part in the film where James first meets the enlarged insects. Started this 8 track (ooooh!) recording on 8th March 94, according to my now browning track sheet.”

Lyrics

Don't let us bug ya
Ooh, stop shakin' boy
Unless you want to shake with us
Relax, you ain't breakfast

Don't let us bug ya
We just be having fun
Don't let us bug ya
We won't eat anyone

You may think that you've ridden the bus
And been all around the world
I bet you never seen folks like us
We're enough to make your bald hair curl, man
Enough to make your bald hair curl
So...

Don't let us bug ya
Don't let us bug ya

Don't let us bug ya
Don't mean to wig you out
Don't let us bug ya
Your hair's blown off, no doubt

You may think that there's nothing new
For any little boy or girl
What you see is we're the true
We're enough to make your bald hair curl, man
Enough to make your bald hair curl
So...

Don't let us bug ya
Don't let us bug ya
Enough to make your bald hair curl, man
Enough to make your bald hair curl

Don't let us bug ya
You see we're cool enough
Don't let us bug ya
Just because we got these feelers and stuff

Sure that you heard about "The Ugly Bug Ball"
As sung by Uncle Burl
Rub your eyes with the real thing
We're enough to make your bald hair curl, man
Enough to make your bald hair curl
So...

Don't let us bug ya
Enough to make your bald hair curl, man
Don't let us bug ya
Enough to make your bald hair curl

Just relax, we're not gonna eat you, boy...
