Plenty cucarachas Plenty cucarachas Plenty cucarachas

 

They climb on your face man when you sleep

Into your open mouth and they clean your teeth

They lay one thousand eggs in the silverware drawer

A little ping-ding in the cookie jar an den dey lay one thousand more

You spray from de Raid and Black flag to eliminate them but you know not even nuclear bomb can eliminate them

Plenty cucarachas Plenty cucarachas Plenty cucarachas

 

Climbing in the closets corners kitchen cabinets yes its true

They think they’re family and they move right in

you pull your hair out and scream ‘What we guan do?”
