There’s a Bug in Cabin Six lyrics
by Marc Gunn
When first I boarded a ship
To journey to the Rim
Captain said one thing
When first I met with him
"There's a place you cannot go to
If you wander through the ship
You always must remember
There’s a bug in Cabin Six
I'm not sure how it got there
I just know that it is
It ate poor Private Carson
That cabin once was his"
Then he shook his fist in warning
But I snuck down for kicks
And peeked into the door hatch
Of forbidden Cabin Six
The window was quite filthy
But I got quite a shock
When I saw what they were hiding
Behind that flimsy lock
Stood high as my shoulder
On legs like pogo sticks
With three full sets of chompers
That bug in Cabin Six
I think I wound up screaming
I rеally think I did
Because it looked right through mе
In the hallway where I hid
I ran back to my berth
And double locks I clicked
So I would not get eaten
By the bug in Cabin Six
You may think this just a story
A tall tale wrapped in song
But I will tell you truly
That logic is all wrong
Somewhere in that wasteland
In that black and starry mix
That ship is still a-sailing
With a bug in Cabin Six
You may think this just a story
A tall tale wrapped in song
But somewhere in the Black
That bug is sailing on
