Ladybugs (based on a true experience)

One day i took a hike with my mom, and to my surprise, there were ladybugs EVERYWHERE. And I mean everywhere, every thing in sight was coated with a layer of red. This amazing experience inspired me to write this song.

LADYBUGS

ladybugs
ladybugs
everywhere
ladybugs
ladybugs
in the air

well today I took a hike
up my favorite trail
the sun beating on my baaack
I jog a little faster to a clear rolling creak
and what I see makes me do a double taake

ladybugs
ladybugs
everywhere
ladybugs
ladybugs
in the air

on the ground
on a branch
in the trees
little dots
of black and red
bringing good luck
to me

well I heard that in the US
they're omens of good luck
and then
one lands on my finger
I count the black spots on it's back
dot by dot
and to my luck I think it just might linger

I'm very careful to watch my step
because there's hundreds,
no, thousands,
no, millions on the ground
It's like the sun
decided to rain bright red
and the blood drops are all flying arouuund

Well just like they're little wings
the time just flies
and already
the sun has gone down
I say goodbye
to as many as I can count
but when I leave
they all
seem to
frooown

To this very day I never forget
when i took that fateful hike
and there where

ladybugs
ladybugs
everywhere
ladybugs
ladybugs
in the air

on the ground
on a branch
in the trees
little dots
of black and red
bringing good luck
too me

tell me what you think =)
