The Silverfish (Zygentoma)
A primitive insect, lived millions of years,
400 & 20 of them it appears.
I never developed wings that can fly,
My movement reminds you of fish swimming by.
Give me your linen, your wallpaper glue
Carpets & clothing, and tapestries too.
A Silverfish am I, slick are my looks.
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Silverfish, Silverfish
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Earwigs and Spiders come hunting at night
But I run so fast they won't catch me, not quite!
Myself, I'm no hunter - no others will hurt.
I just search for starches amongst all the dirt.
Give me your dandruff, your hair and your wig
Some silk or some photos, and I'll dance a jig!
A Silverfish am I, slick are my looks.
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Silverfish, Silverfish
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Do you think I'm pretty? I sure hope you do!
My shiny scales give me a silvery hue.
Which end is my head and which one my tail?
Antennae or cerci? To guess you may fail!
Give me your cereal and coffee, please do!
The paint in your ceiling and some plaster too.
A Silverfish am I, slick are my looks.
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Silverfish, Silverfish
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
400 & 20 of them it appears.
I never developed wings that can fly,
My movement reminds you of fish swimming by.
Give me your linen, your wallpaper glue
Carpets & clothing, and tapestries too.
A Silverfish am I, slick are my looks.
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Silverfish, Silverfish
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Earwigs and Spiders come hunting at night
But I run so fast they won't catch me, not quite!
Myself, I'm no hunter - no others will hurt.
I just search for starches amongst all the dirt.
Give me your dandruff, your hair and your wig
Some silk or some photos, and I'll dance a jig!
A Silverfish am I, slick are my looks.
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Silverfish, Silverfish
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Do you think I'm pretty? I sure hope you do!
My shiny scales give me a silvery hue.
Which end is my head and which one my tail?
Antennae or cerci? To guess you may fail!
Give me your cereal and coffee, please do!
The paint in your ceiling and some plaster too.
A Silverfish am I, slick are my looks.
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Silverfish, Silverfish
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
Although not a book worm, I sure love your books!
