Six billion ants

Crawling on a plate

Six billion ants

Crawling on a plate

None of them give back

As much as they take

Six billion ants

Crawling on a plate

Doesn't mean you should

Just because you can

It doesn't mean you should

Just because you can

Like Abraham and Ishmael

Fighting over sand

It doesn't mean you should

Just because you can

That is a fact of life

That is a fact of life

Now some of us build

And some of us teach

Some of us build

Some of us teach

And some of us kill

What some of us eat

That is a fact of life

That is a fact of life

Nobody knows

What happens when you die

Nobody knows

What happens when you die

Believe what you want

It doesn't mean you're right

That is a fact of life

That is a fact of life
