Leaf Cutter Ants in the jungle
Dow Jones and Wall Street for them
Is not what is stressing them out every day
Its carrying leaves by the stem
They do it at very high altitude
Busily working away
Industrious creatures achieving a lot
And clearly rewarded I’d say
Achieving from me admiration
For doing a great deal each day
Leaf cutter ants in the jungle
Working their butts clear away
For the good of their Leaf Cutter Kingdom
selfishness
Not in their head
Watching them working for the good of all
Puts democracy firmly to bed
