The Ants Song

 

May be sung to the tune

"When Johnny comes marching home again"

 

The ants go flying one by one - Hurrah  Hurrah!

'Cos they got in the hose of the air-con in my car..MY CAR!!!!!

The ants go flying one by one,

The small ones were lighter and bypassed their Mum,

Yes, they shot out my vents

At a hundred miles an hour.

 

The ants go flying one by one  - Hurrah  Hurrah,

Who could have guessed that ants could fly so far.so far?

Their faces were shocked and so was mine,

Like the Rollercoaster ride of all time,

Yes they all went flying

All around my car.
