Ants Lyrics
I am a point in the sky
A star in a constellation
I am all you see
I am Orion's eyes
A towering giant's sight
Me being of mammoth's size
This comes as no surprise
I see all I've created
From my colossus stance
I watch as my investment
Is swarmed by the busy ants
They'll carry ten times their weight
If it means landing the deal
They'll eat what's not on their plate
If it means a full meal
Shine down on us now
Wash our hands clean
Lord knows they're filthy
Blackened with greed
Please be our Savior
Great deity
Well if you can't save us
Can this money?
I see all I've created
From my colossus stance
I watch as my investment
Is swarmed by the busy ants
They'll carry ten times their weight
If it means landing the deal
They'll eat what's not on their plate
If it means a full meal
Few have cut their strings
And risked it all to chase
Their dreams
Most seek the quick buck
The perfect tan
The easy fuck
Pay for their promotion
They stay in line
They please the queen
They wait their turn
Climb the hill
At all costs, avoid the pain
With my titan feet I could
End it with just one step
You cannot dodge agony
If all ten tons of it
Comes stomping
Down on you at once
Like a bullet to the brain
From my monster height
A healthy walk I contemplate
I see all I've created
From my colossus stance
I watch as my investment
Is swarmed by the busy ants
They'll carry ten times their weight
If it means landing the deal
They'll eat what's not on their plate
If it means a full meal
