Green and lookin' kinda creepy
Always seemin' sorta sleepy
He doesn't much make waves
And effort's all he saves
Says tomorrow, mumbles maybe
Wants a girl but needs a lady
He only does what's there
He's only got a prayer
Goes along his way and wishes
Hasn't even done the dishes
Made a microcosm in his room, never goes to plan
N/
Wonders when he'll find his own cocoon, Caterpillar Man
Shies away from head canary
Wide old world is pretty scary
He falls on something green
And hopes he won't be seen
Will he be what he's inside
Will he face the fail or hide
Forget the pitiful
For something beautiful
Goes along his way and wishes
Hasn't even done the dishes
Made a microcosm in his room, never goes to plan
N/
Wonders when he'll find his own cocoon, Caterpillar Man
Goes along his way and wishes
Hasn't even done the dishes
Made a microcosm in his room, never goes to plan
N/
Wonders when he'll find his own cocoon, Caterpillar Man
