Scorpion In My Room Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You say I have some irrational fears
But how could someone like you insult me that way
Just 'cause I scream when a spider comes near
At least I'm not afraid of the toy store display

[Pre-Chorus]
But now I'm truly scared
There's something on the floor
Last night it wasn't there
It must've crawled under the door

[Chorus]
I'm not delusional
I'm not confused, you know
Yeah there's a scorpion in my room I know
It's not a cricket, no
Least I don't think so
Yeah there's a scorpion in my room
(La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la scorpion in her room I know
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la scorpion in her room)
[Verse 2]
I fetched a bowl and I captured the bug
It's been sitting there for maybe an hour or two
Perhaps it's now scurried under my rug
And now I'm not so sure what I'm going to do

[Pre-Chorus]
Yes, now I'm truly scared
There's something on the floor
Last night it wasn't there
It must've crawled under the door (door, door, door)

[Chorus]
I'm not delusional
I'm not confused, you know
Yeah there's a scorpion in my room I know
It's not a cricket, no
Least I don't think so
Yeah there's a scorpion in my room
(La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la scorpion in her room I know
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la scorpion in her room)
[Bridge]
Oh I was freaking out
When it was peeking out
Oh I might have a minuscule confession
I didn't look that close
Man it was so gross
But I may have given you the wrong impression

[Chorus]
I'm not delusional
I'm not confused, you know
Yeah there's a scorpion in my room I know
It's not a cricket, no
Least I don't think so
Yeah there's a scorpion in my room
(La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la scorpion in her room I know
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la scorpion in her room)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
