Verse 1
Look real close & you can find
These little small lives as they unwind
Got Squiggz, Nana & Grandpa Lou
'Bout to show you how real uptown bugs do
From story to story, guts to glory
'Bout to give you a big dose of this roach approach & show oh
God's love is the most
From the great big elephant to the itty bitty roach
Refrain 1
Everybody needs a little love
Everybody wants a Heavenly hug
Every kind of creepy crawling creature you know
Get on the boat, come on, let's go, don't squish that roach!
(Roaches got families too, ya know what I'm saying?)
Girls & Guys Unison: Don't squish that roach!
(If a roach was bigger than you, would You mind Him squishing you?)
Choir Unison: Don't squish that roach!
Oh no, I didn't think so, no.
Don't squish that roach!
Yeah! Come on y'all, let's do this!!
Verse 2
Just because he's creepy and crawly
That doesn't mean his world is too small
See the Lord watches everywhere that they go
And told Noah to tell the roach to get on the boat, yo!
So if you approach a roach from here to there, anywhere from coast to coast
See he might not boast about his stature
'Cause the Lord loves him see your size don't matter!
Refrain 2
Everybody needs a little love,
Everybody needs a Heavenly hug.
Every kind of creepy crawling creature you know
Get on the boat, come on let's go...
It takes every kind of man, woman, boy & girl,
Given all we got to build a better world.
'Cause we're all God's creatures right down to the roach,
So come along, come on!
Let's go, let's go, don't squish that roach!
Oh yeah! Huh! Don't squish that roach!
Ya know what I'm saying! I want you on your feet.
Don't squish that roach!
Don't squish that roach, hug the roach!
Don't squish that roach!
Huh, yeah! Oh we're going to church now!
Approximate VAMP
Hallelujah, glory be!
Everybody come along with me.
Won't you come & go with me?
Come & go with me
Come & go with me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
