| The thief is down |
| Flat on the ground |
| Face on cement |
| A crowd gathers round |
| His old black coat |
| Thrown over his head |
| The crowd’s all hushed |
| Cause it looks like he’s dead |
| He’s got a limited view |
| Just one patch of light |
| Shining down |
| On a curious sight |
| Parasol ants |
| In a perfect line |
| With bright green leaves |
| Raised up high |
| And he is God and those leaves are sails |
| He is God and his breath is the gale |
| He is God with time to kill |
| He is God and he can do just what he will |
| But God is bored |
| So it’s, what the hell |
| He let’s go a gust |
| Just to watch them flail |
| The ants go flying |
| In disarray |
| Those bright green leaves |
| All blown away |
| But God’s got problems |
| He’s busted, but good |
| He ain’t nothin' |
| Just a well-known local hood |
| The ants keep coming |
| They pay him no mind |
| They’ve got leaves to move |
| They just march on by |
