Parasite Song

Tick cartoon
Ticks and fleas, leeches, lice
None of you are really nice,
Parasites, parasites,
You’re no friend to me…
Parasite, parasite,
Why’d you drink my blood last night?
Parasite, parasite
You live on me rent free!

I woke up in the morning,
I saw I had a bite,
I took a closer look,
It was a parasite!
A tick was sucking blood,
From right below my knee
That little parasite,
was taking things for free!

Ticks and fleas, leeches, lice
None of you are really nice,
Parasites, parasites,
You’re no friend to me…
Parasite, parasite,
Why’d you drink my blood last night?
Parasite, parasite
You live on me rent free!

They might suck my blood,
They might eat my food
Not only do they live rent free,
They ruin my good mood!
They’re feeding off our bodies,
They always harm their host,
When it comes to parasites
I dislike them most…

Ticks and fleas, leeches, lice
None of you are really nice,
Parasites, parasites,
You’re no friend to me…
Parasite, parasite,
Why’d you drink my blood last night?
Parasite, parasite
You live on me rent free!

They always like to take,
They never like to share,
They’re not a puppy or a bird,
They’re not a fuzzy bear,
These are parasites,
They’re no friend to me,
When I’m their host, they pay no rent,
They live on me for free.

Ticks and fleas, leeches, lice
None of you are really nice,
Parasites, parasites,
You’re no friend to me…
Parasite, parasite,
Why’d you drink my blood last night?
Parasite, parasite
You live on me rent free!

Worms in my intestines
They make my stomach ache
Stealing nutrients,
There’s no give and take,
Please don’t make me sick,
Please oh please get out.
My gut is not your home,
Don’t  make me have to shout!

Ticks and fleas, leeches, lice
None of you are really nice,
Parasites, parasites,
You’re no friend to me…
Parasite, parasite,
Why’d you drink my blood last night?
Parasite, parasite
You live on me rent free!
