Lyrics:
(to the tune of “The Ants Go Marching”)
Ants don’t have a boss or king
To tell them what to do
But if you ever watch an ant it works the whole day through
Digging tunnels in the ground or feeding the queen
Their instinct helps them to work responsibly
Their instinct helps them to work responsibly
Ants just work all day
They don’t take the time to play
Using amazing strength to get the job done
You could search far and near from there to here
But you won’t find a better worker under the sun
But you won’t find a better worker under the sun
The queen ant keeps on laying eggs
She knows just what to do
The eggs change into larvae
Then they change into cocoons
Then from cocoons they all become the grown-up ants we see
Working hard to help the colony
Working hard to help the colony
Ants just work all day
They don’t take the time to play
Using amazing strength to get the job done
You could search far and near from there to here
But you won’t find a better worker under the sun
But you won’t find a better worker under the sun
