What has no bones? ... Why invertebrates do!

lyrics

Chorus:
Head, thorax, abdomen
You’re inside out, no bones within.
Head, thorax, abdomen
I’m talking about my six-legged friends.

The go through metamorphic change.
They turn from weird to really strange.
Wings to fly, antennae too,
Mouth parts to suck and chew.
Chorus…

Some aren’t so good to have around
because they eat my garden down.
Others are beneficial guests
because they eat those garden pests.
Chorus…

Moths, wasps, flies and fleas,
Crickets, ants beetles and bees
Each one has a part to play
From pollinating flowers to eating decay.
Chorus…


If you want a different point of view,
get down on the ground and
do what insects do.
And if you see a foot in the air
Hope that it’s a foot that
walks with care.
Chorus…
