Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, I love babies.
Hey, guys. Check out my new friends!
(Ah!)
Don't be afraid.
We can all be friends!
Dont be scared.
All of us look different.
Some, big and hairy.
Some, small and slimy.
Don't be afraid.
Don't be scared.
Say hi to someone new.
They could, they could be a new friend to you.
(Hi)
Now, you be nice, and say hi to my friends.
(Hello?)
I'm not afraid!
I'm not either!
They're nice!
I'm not afraid.
I'm not afraid.
All of us are different.
I'm a worm!
But we can still, we can still be friends.
I'm not afraid.
I'm not afraid.
All of us are different.
Yeah, worms!
But we can still, we can still be friends.
