[Verse One: Billions greeting, roaming since Genesis out through the crevices Infested, walls filled termites Bugs in the drawer, for food Coming out when no light! They're small, but they make humans You'll do a spastic jerk if you spot one crawling on your If you squeamish, you're provided, When you you keep your mouth closed, cause yo they might crawl up inside it Uninvited, out the Earth's core Bugs are the only that'll probably survive a nuclear war And as you snore, they to run through your door Then explore, you notice when they're on your upside down floor Schemin', he sees food and calls his in, but some ain't smart enough to evade the exterminator's So the pest takes it back to his contacting another insect it begins to infect the rest A lot die, but it's only a small fraction - we catch 'em 'cause always new eggs hatchin'
[Chorus COCKROACHES! and scratched by the DJ* (3X)
[Verse Two: Cockroaches, perceive as evil But if you're from the projects, them are like the people!

So watch out, they'll to get you with militias, throwin' poop parties up in your sink, swimming up to dishes
