from 'caterpillin,' a song by Licki Ucroj:

"when you home chillin like a villain
we call that ish caterpillin
sittin in yo room
ain't no social butterfly: you ain't gotta bloom

wrapped up in a blanky;

comfy, not sweaty or stanky;

ain't out catchin cold,

so you won't need no hanky
ain't even gotta prep or groom
'cuz you caterpillin in your own cocoon"
