Genuinely a Mosquito Distrack

Intro

Mosquitos!

Verse 1

A menace in every nation

A global infestation

No purpose in creation

A biological mistake

Verse 2

What would happen if they all died?

Would the food chain even notice?

What would happen if they all died?

Well, let me walk you through it

Verse 3

First, you might think, "The birds and fish would have no meal!"

But they have plenty of others to steal

And as for the plants they pollinate?

It's such a tiny fraction, it hardly rates

Pre-Chorus

But let's go deeper down the rabbit hole

To find out if there's a greater role

Do they provide some vital ecological service?

Chorus

No! (Mosquitos!)

Does their disappearance make the world a better place?

(Mosquitos!)

Would the loss of their species have a negative impact?

(Mosquitos!)

Mosquitoes

Verse 4

What about the carbon cycle?

Do they play a significant part?

Well, they decompose into the soil

But there are billions of others that do the same, in fact

Verse 5

And then there's the animals that drink their blood

Like spiders, bats, and dragonflies

Well, they'd just find something else to suck

Like aphids, flies, or mayflies

Pre-Chorus

But let's dig a little bit further down

A deeper level still to be found

Are they providing a benefit we haven't yet grasped?

Chorus

No! (Mosquitos!)

Does their disappearance make the world a better place?

(Mosquitos!)

Would the loss of their species have a negative impact?

(Mosquitos!)

Bridge

And if the world is still turning, and the oceans still churning

And the animals still breeding, and the people still eating

And the trees still growing, and the rivers still flowing

And the sun still shining, then the answer is so clear

Chorus

No! (Mosquitos!)

Does their disappearance make the world a better place?

(Mosquitos!)

Would the loss of their species have a negative impact?

(Mosquitos!)
