The Jitterburg - Judy Garland, Ray Bolger

It may be just a cricket, or a critter in the trees

It’s giving me the jitters in the joints around my knees

I think I see a shadow, and he’s fuzzy and he’s furry

I haven’t got a brain but I think I ought to worry

I haven’t got a heart, but I got a

Palpitation

As Monarch of the forest, I don’t like this sitchy-ation

Are you gonna stand around and let him fill us full of horror?

I’d like to roar him down… but I think I lost my roarer

It’s a whozis!

It’s a whosis?

It’s a whatzis!

It’s a whatzis?

Whozat?

Whozat?

Whozat?

Whozat?

Who’s that hiding

In the tree top?

It’s that rascal

The Jitterbug

Should you catch him

Buzzin' round you

Keep away from

The Jitterbug

Oh, the bats and the bees

And the breeze in the trees

Have a terrible, horrible buzz

But the bats and the bees

And the breeze in the trees

Couldn’t do what the Jitterbug does

So be careful

Of that rascal

Keep away from

The Jitterbug!

Oh, the Jitter!

Oh, the Bug!

Oh, the Jitter

Bug-bug-a-bug-bug-bug-bug-bug-a-boo!

In a twitter

In the throes

Oh the critter’s

Got me dancing on a thousand toes!

Thar' she blows!
