Bats (Oh Baby!)

Bats

Bats (oh baby)
Mammals that fly
(Wings are things that take us up in the sky)
Bats (oh baby)
Fly through the night
(Nocturnal means that we sleep in the daylight)

Bats (oh baby)
Mammalian Fur
(Every mammal takes a little milk from its mother)
Bats (oh baby)
See with their ears
(Echolation's how a microbat steers)

We can steer with our ears!

They wake up in the twilight
(We eat breakfast at midnight)
Every meal is in-flight
(We have terrible eyesight)
You might think they are scary
(But we're helpful and hairy and that's, that)
An ecosystem loves a bat

Bats

Bats (oh baby)
Hangin' in caves
(Very, very hairy but a bat never shaves)
So many species, oh that's a fact
(Over a thousand)
That's a lot!

Bats (murcielago) en espanol
(The bumblebee bat es lo mas pequeno)
Bats (oh baby)
Won't fly in your hair
(We're excellent pilots that myth is unfair)

They won't fly in your hair!

They wake up in the twilight
(We eat breakfast at midnight)
Every meal is in-flight
(We have terrible eyesight)
You might think they are scary
(But we're helpful and hairy and that's, that)
An ecosystem loves a bat

(Oh mosquito, I don't like you)
Hey, don't you know that mosquitoes are a bat's breakfast?

Mosquitoes, everybody knows are kinda gross when they buzz were close
Microbats feel differently
A mosquito is a microbat delicacy
Several thousand mosquitoes a night give a microbat power for the next night's flight
So when a mosquito gets on your nerves
Remember they make excellent bat h'orderves

No mosquitoes, no bats
How we'd miss them
Everything's connected in an ecosystem
Mosquitoes? Annoying!
But don't dismiss them
Everthing's important in an ecosystem
A system consisting of life coexisting
That's the definition of an ecosystem

Bats

Bats (oh baby)
Now you should know
We're part of a system and part of your home
Bats (oh baby)
I'm glad you're alive
Healthy ecosystems will help them survive
Stayin' alive, stayin' alive bats, bats, bats

They wake up in the twilight
(We eat breakfast at midnight)
Every meal is in-flight
(We have terrible eyesight)
You might think they are scary
(But we're helpful and hairy and that's, that)
An ecosystem loves a bat
