From the recordings "V.I.P. to G-O-D", "V.I.P. to G-O-D" (2003), and 20 Best Hits! - $15.
Rob's biggest hit for younger kids [ages 2-7]. It's very clever [when you sin, you're being a "stink bug"]. It's also very fast, high-energy, and joyful. Lots of opportunities to cheer, sing, dance, "whoop."
Lyrics
words and music by Rob Biagi ©2003 Rob Biagi Music (BMI)
i don’t mean to bug you
but God loves you!
i don’t mean to bug you
but God knows who you are!
i don’t mean to bug you
but God loves you!
He’s got a big, big love for little, little you
i don’t mean to bug you
but God loves you!
Q: what if i do something that’s not nice?
(A: that’s called being a “stink bug”)
when you’re a stink bug - God loves you!
when you’re a stink bug - God knows who you really are!
when you’re a stink bug - God loves you!
He’s got a sweet, sweet love for stinky, stinky you
when you’re a stink bug – God loves you!
let’s hear all the girl bugs make some noise!
what about all those “tough guy” bugs – let me hear you!
how about the grown-up bugs?!
you know God loves you!
Q: what if someone is picking on me?
(A: ahh…when you get “squashed”)
when you get squashed
God loves you!
Q: what if i’m annoying my Dad?”
(A: when you’re creepy…God knows who you are!)
i’m shy…
when you’re in your cocoon
God loves you!
absolutely no matter what! –
He’s got a big, big love for little, little you
“everybuggy” – God loves you!
everybuggy – God loves you!
everybuggy – God knows who you are
everybuggy – say, “God loves you!”
He’s got a big, big love for little, little you
everybuggy – God loves you!
oh! - catch the buzz about God’s love!

"The Bug Song" is Rob's biggest hit for younger kids [ages 2-7]. It's very clever [when you sin, you're being a "stink bug"]. It's also very fast, high-energy, and joyful. Lots of opportunities to cheer, sing, dance, whoop it up!
MUSICAL STYLE/SOUND: Fast tempo - Acoustic band ska, pop with horns.
IF YOU'RE TEACHING:
- The Gospel Message
- "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." - (Romans 5:8)
- God is BIG in every way, people are little [and dependent] in every way
- God has a BIG love for us!
- God makes an "informed decision" when he calls you [He knows you fall short, and He invites you to repent and be forgiven anyway].
- Nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus - (Romans 8:39)
KEY LYRIC: "When you're a stink bug, God loves you...He's got a sweet, sweet love for stinky, stinky you. When you're a stink bug God loves you!"
LITTLE KNOWN FACT: In the key change toward the end of the song, one of the horn players hits a wrong note, and Rob failed to fix it in the audio editing process. Can you find it?
