Butterflies, butterflies in your tum,
Feel those butterflies - here they come,
You may be smart, you may be dumb,
But we all get butterflies in our tum.

The President's ready as he can be
To talk to the nation on TV,
But he murmurs, as he removes his gum:
"Got those darn butterflies in my tum!"

Butterflies, butterflies in your tum,
Feel those butterflies - here they come,
It's not just you - go ask your Mum,
We all get butterflies in our tum.

"It's time," the Queen said, "that we went
To open the Houses of Parliament
We only hope we're not struck dumb
By all these butterflies in our tum."

Butterflies, butterflies in your tum,
Feel those butterflies - here they come,
Rich or poor, or without a crumb,
We all get butterflies in our tum.

There may be times you get quite stressed,
But butterflies help you do your best.
School sports, or Wembley Stadium,
You need those butterflies in your tum!

Butterflies, butterflies in your tum,
Feel those butterflies - here they come,
Don't let those butterflies make you glum,
We all get butterflies in our tum.
