Bugman-in honor of the late Gregor Samsa


Bugman lyrics

I am an ex offender
They let me out in the summer
I think I was in a coma
I didn't know what to do
Oh no

You go hang around go round
I'll watch myself hang on
Look out for the Bugman
You go hang around around
I'll watch myself hang on
Look out for the Bugman

I got no sent of existence
I know the nodding dogs
I go out in the city
I stay away from the bugs
Oh yeah

You go hang around around
I watch myself hang on 
Look out for the Bugman 
You go hang around around
I watch myself hang on 
Look out for the Bugman 

The bu uh uh ug man

I go out in the city
I stay away from the bugs
Oh yeah
na na na na na oh oh...

I go out in the city

  1. Cool connection, Cody (and how's that for alliteration?). I like Blur, but I wasn't familiar with this song. Some of the lyrics resonate well with Gregor's existence.

  2. I think one line in particular connects with gregor: "I got no sense of existence." This correlates with Gregor because he is slowly dehumanized throughout the Metamorphosis, and he loses everything that used to be part of his life, including his family. He loses all purpose, and when his family admits they want him gone, he literally wills himself to cease to exist, and he dies. This song relates well.
