Lyrics
ANTS DANCE
Verse 1
When I was a little kid
I used to kick my cowboy boot
Through the middle of a great big ant pile
And sometimes I still sometimes I still do
Verse 2
And for a while they?d fan out looking for
The source of the attack
But they never once gave up on home
They just built the damn thing, built the thing right back
They just built the damn thing, built the thing right back
Chorus
They?d do a little ants dance
They all joined in together
They?d do a little ants dance
And build it all back better
Do a little ants dance
The jitter-bug with a twist
They?d do a little ants dance
Build it all back bit by bit
Verse 3
Now the big boot?s come right down on us
And it seems our world?s been shattered
Pieces flying around us
They?re still here ? they?re only scattered
Verse 4
I know you?re wondering what to do
Seems the whole world?s in a trance
Darling I?ve got just the thing to do
And the thing to do is dance
