anyone knows an ant can't


Next time you're found,
with your chin on the ground --
There's a lot to be learned,
so look around...

Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant?
Anyone knows an ant, can't
Move a rubber tree plant

But he's got --
high hopes, he's got
high hopes
He's got --
--high apple pie, in the sky-y hopes,

So any time you're gettin' low
'stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant

When troubles call,
and your back's to the wall
There's a lot to be learned,
that wall could fall

Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin' that dam

'Cause he had --
hi-igh hopes,
he had hi-igh hopes,
He had big apple pie,
in the -- sk-y-y hopes --

So any time you're feelin' bad
'stead of feelin' sad
Just remember that ram
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam

All problems just a toy balloon
They'll be bursted soon
They're just bound to go pop
Oops there goes another problem ker-plop
