Ants Little Ants
Most People Would Find You Awful
Not me
You are my little buddies
That work all the time
How can I not admire you
Never complaining
How rough you have it
If it was anyone else
They would be the first to say
Everyone in the world is so much bigger than me
I can't do it
Working together in the toughest conditions
Always on the ground level
Even worse all my friends had to go underground for cover
Stepped on constantly
We don't wear clothes
So we have no style
We all look exactly a like
Not one ant complains
We know we are cool
You trying wearing black twenty-four seven
Try to imagine how hot we get
No, you can't even come with any ideas
Boy are you lazy
Let me tell you then
We heat up faster than a hot charcoal in the fire
No we just go on are day to day routine
We listen to you all the time say
How bored you are at home and at work
All we do
Is try to catch a break
If all this wasn't bad enough
Everyone is out to get us
With bug sprays and insecticides
Then we have are enemies too
The spiders with their tricky Halloween webs
They think it is funny
How would you like to be pranked every day of the year ?
People go into their fancy houses to keep them warm and protect them from the bad weather
All we want to do is hide out in your basement until the weather clears
You won't even give us the smallest space
All dusty and dirty
Could you at least sweep ?
We do so much more for are company
They are guests in our homes
We roll out the red carpet
We put them up in Presidential Sweets
Until we can build them their own house
When you have a whole house and furniture in every room
I wouldn't mind
Half the time you leave your house to go somewhere else
Off to work and driving miles and miles
You think you could offer us a ride ?
No chance
People everywhere have all gone soft
All you do is wait and dream
Going to the local casino
Spending every last dollar
Even if you get lucky
Up hundreds or even thousands of dollars in just a few hours
You don't know when to quit
You give it right back
So if you didn't blow all your money yet
Think what we could do ?
When we build high rises and huge downtown cities out of dirt
Then you borrow your so called money from a million and one banks
They are more than happy to take you money for your next silly vacation
You still won't listen to us
What do we know?
Bankers laugh all the way to the bank
Wake up and smell the coffee
Don't get me started
Every morning you stop in a Duncan Donuts for a coffee
When you have a fancy and spancy Keuric coffee maker at home
Over priced and totally unnecessary
Spending all your money like water
We hold are tongues
Because, we have found most people
Just won't listen
So if you didn't already lose at the local casino
I am sure you are off to some far away destination
Going to the hot weather in Arizona and Florida
You think you could send us a postcard ?
Isn't that the least you could do ?
Let us know when you are going?
So that we could at least say hi to our friends and family
We don't get to see or talk to everyday like you do
You yap, yap, yap
About nothing
Don't get me going on cell phones ?
I will be here all night
Are you still there ?
Did you cry to mommy?
We are home bodies
You really don't like us do you ?
The truth comes out
You pay a security system to watch are every move
Once again we could have saved you a fortune
We keep telling you
We are the best security system in the world
We are great at what we do
Finding the littlest crack to slide our way in
It is not easy
We case every joint for months at a time
When the time is right
We move right it
We are all about family
While you send your elderly off to a smelly, old building
That we left years ago
The worst part of it is
You pay fifty to one hundred times the rate we would have charged
As you go deeper and deeper into debt
When will you ever learn ?
Then if things aren't bad enough
We end up with floods and forest fires all the time
Gusts of wind up to one hundred miles an hour
That is when we have it good
How about in the winter in the freezing cold?
You don't care
People use shovels and plows in snow storms
We have to use our own little hands and feet
Even after all the things I have said
You still make us out like the bad guys
There are only a few exceptions
Hats off to you Adam Ant
You put us on the chart
In the 1977 to 1982
I just love your music
Then you gave us few good movies
Antz , A Bugs Life, Antboy, Maya The Bee
We really started finally liking you
We were ready to sweep it all under the rug
Once and for all
But you just won't let it go
All the people
In every state
I will try to put this as delicately as I can
Not to hurt your feelings
You have some real issues
Please, seek help
Donald Trump is only one person
Even with help from all his friends
Elon Musk and many good people trying to fix your whole world
He can't do it
While you just sit and run your mouth off
What do you know about real work?
He is trying the best he can
All in just four years
The first time he tried to help
All you wanted to do believe lies and rumors
Once again you should be ashamed of yourself
But your not
Are you spineless like a jellyfish ?
I guess so
We know what work is like
We have done it every day of our life
You don't have a clue how hard it is ?
We start working as soon as you can walk
Then we don't stop
Everyone pulls their own weight
Those who can't
We do it for them
No hard feelings
We know you at least try
We work from sun up to sun down
The younger generation
Works around the clock
They just love the overtime
You have to buckle up
Do what you can
Quit bitching and moaning
Belly aching and complaining
No matter how hard they work and how much he has accomplished
It just can't be done
You all have really screwed things up
You not only stopped him on the wall
You had some of it taken down
Instead of support
You couldn't hack it
We were around when the Great Wall Of China was built
Now that was something else
If you people were computers
The ones you love so much
You would be beyond repair
All scraped to cut your losses
Easier to start all over again
Every day we hear you talk
You don't really care
Show so really big balls
You have to take a stand
Stand on your two feet
Be a man
An ants word is good as gold
Just when I thought you have changed your attitudes about us and we can become friends
You come out with Ant Bully
How can I forgive you for that ?
You can't change the stripes of a zebra
You said it yourself not me
Well, if that is the way you really feel ?
Then so be it
We tried to be nice
We turned the other antenna
You have gone to far
What is it with all the smart people in the world ?
They always want to start another war
You are not finished with one
Then you go start another one
You think you would learn ?
Nope
Then for kicks you destroy each others buildings
That took you millions of dollars to build
Not counting all the time and effort
Just think of all the resources ?
What a waste
Keep your guard up
This means war
Have a good sleep tonight
Rest up
We will be paying you a visit real soon
Remember you started it
If you change your mind ?
Like Donald Trump said
I want to end the war
Not begin one I can't win
We will be only a few feet and ant piles away
If you don't think we are strong ?
Guess again
We don't go to the gym like you
We work out on our own every day
We all are in great shape
While you eat chips and sit on your super soft couch
We are so busy
Every ant can carry at least ten times it's weight
If you don't think that is impressive
It is equal to a grown man
Carrying a full grown cow
That is about 1,400 pounds
I have talked enough
We have listened to you shoot your mouth off
Back up what you say ?
We honestly feel nothing is going to change
It is all up to you ?
The ball is in your court
From one ant to another
We have an old saying
Hey, Joe
Just passing through
Is there anything we can do ?
