Now birds fly, and babies cry
But you and I, oh me oh my
We do the bop-bop, the beetle-bug-bop-bop
The beetle-bug-bop-bop, the beetle-bug-bop-bop
The beetle-bug-bop-bop, the coolest dance in town

You get down low, move your feet kinda slow
You do a hop-hop
Hold your arms out straight, the beat goes crazy
You do a hop-hop
Move your fingers up and down, flap your wings and turn around
You do a hop-hop
That's the beetle-bug-bop, the coolest dance in town

Take your partner by the hand, he will understand
You do a hop-hop
Learn the cat-a-rhythm-rock, like a boppin' jitterbug
You do a hop-hop
If you dig this boppin', there ain't no stoppin
You do a hop-hop
That's the beetle-bug-bop, the coolest dance in town
