Hi there, carpenter ant
Going to work
Lift ten times your weight
I try but I can't
Pick up that shovel
Fix up your house
Check out your level
The floor slants

You're getting close to the center
Pick up vibrations
Reception is bad
Better clean those antennae
Drove where's it at
You're thin as a rail
Start laying on fat
Get ready for winter

In your
Black ant
Syntax
This means

Love then obey your queen
She chokes in up again

There's the queen of your world
She's wearing that scent
The workers can't have
The carpenter girl
She's ten times your size
But thin in the waist
You look in her eyes
Her abdomen curls

Hey, ah

Down in the hole that you're from
There's jam on her jaws
The picnic is over
Better pick up the crumbs
Down in the weeds
Long on the trail
'Cause I, I don't need
Opposable thumbs

In your
Black ant
Syntax
This means

Love then obey your queen

Oh, hi, yeah
