Ants

They came into the house

And they didn't use the door

They walked across the wall

And they marched across the floor

They climbed up on the chair

Where I sat down and ate

They stepped on the table

And they stomped upon my plate

They went onto the counter

And encountered a spill

That's where they congregated

And they ate their fill

They passed unnoticed

Where my dog and brothers played

Then they left through the window

In an endless parade

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

What those ants have in common

Is that they keep a coming

They just keep on a walking

And nothings gonna stop them

Those ants

I got down on my belly

And I looked them in the face

I said to every ant

Get out of my place

But when I started seeing from

An ant's point of view

I wanted to know more about

What ants can do

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Thoes ants ants

What those ants have in common

Is that they keep a coming

They just keep on a walking

And nothings gonna stop them

Those ants

Some ants they are gardeners

They grow mushrooms with dead leaves

Others they are ranchers

Milking aphids in the trees

When army ants are hungry

Whatever's in their way

Could be devoured in less than a day

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

What those ants have in common

Is that they keep a coming

They just keep on a walking

And nothings gonna stop them

Those ants

They use their antennas

That's how they move along

By smelling the ground

Where other ants have gone

And they can lift up things

Ten times the weight they are

If we could be that strong

Then we could lift a car

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

What those ants have in common

Is that they keep a coming

They just keep on a walking

And nothings gonna stop them

Those ants

I had my picnic basket

And my checkered cloth spread

But first I took a nap

And I laid down my head

When I work up you can guess

What I did see

They were crawling everywhere

To share my lunch with me

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

Those ants ants

What those ants have in common

Is that they keep a coming

They just keep on a walking

And nothings gonna stop them

Those ants
