Mr. Bug Goes to Town Page #4

Synopsis: In a vacant corner lot off Broadway (by about a yard) is a place called the Lowlands by the tiny community that lives there. Bugs and insects are neighbors and hang out at the Honey Shop of old Mr. Bumble the bee and his daughter Honey. Hoppity the grasshopper arrives to be with Honey, his sweetie. This bugs the crooked C. Bagley Beetle, so do his bunglers Smack the Mosquito and Swat the Fly. The Beetle wants Honey and the Lowlands for himself. But the Human Ones, with their littering and carelessness, pose a threat of destruction to every Lowland home of bug and beetle alike. Despite the doomsaying of Mr. Creeper, the snail, Hoppity finds hope of a new home behind the house of two Human Ones: Mary, who cares for a beautiful garden; and Dick, a struggling songwriter who puts his own hope on a Broadway hit to save his home.

To think, that you my trusted aids would

raise your cowardly hands in violence

of her father.

Now it is my painful duty to go down there

and console poor little orphan Honey.

Aw gee, it's beautiful.

And plenty of room for everybody.

And the human one said

Now we can be gay and fancy free.

Bum around, bum around,

keep a bumming round.

We will be as happy as can be.

You and me. You and me. You and me.

After this we'll do as we please.

With a vintage wine

and imported cheese.

And we'll live the life

of Riley you and me.

Hello killers.
