Zag swallowed a stink bug— Ah, ah, ah, ah! Zag swallowed a stink bug— Ah, ah, ah, ah! Buzz, buzz… BURP! Oops! Excuse me! Hot cheeks. A little sigh. You sit down by my side. One little breath. A gentle smile. You stay with me a little while. Zag swallowed a stink bug— Ah, ah, ah, ah! Zag swallowed a stink bug— Ah, ah, ah, ah! Buzz, buzz… BURP! Oops! Excuse me! One little breath. One kind thing. A little kindness changes things. You were kind to me today. I'll pass that kindness on its way. Small wings. A buzzing sound. Little feet upon the ground. One cup. One open door. Kindness makes a little more. Zag swallowed a stink bug— Ah, ah, ah, ah! Zag swallowed a stink bug— Ah, ah, ah, ah! Buzz, buzz… BURP! Oops! Excuse me! Zag swallowed a stink bug— Ah, ah, ah, ah! Zag swallowed a stink bug— Ah, ah, ah, ah! Buzz, buzz… BURP! Oops! Excuse me! One little breath. One kind thing. A little kindness changes things.
