People are weird creatures you see
I will tell you now just between you and me
they Laugh, they wiggle, they kick they shout
they eat chicken beens and Brussels sprouts.
They always cry when somethings not right
and they always scream when they get a fright
And they never seem to under stand
that ants live down under that sand.
the sand they step on and stomp on while they laugh
They treat it like dirt and a little like barf.
But the thing I hate most about those humans you see
is the fact that they are perfect, perfect from head to knee
With there cute little handbag , and to die for shoes
Puhlees I can find better accessories in the zoo.
Ohh I guess they will never learn to be as normal as me
Unless my luck rises, maybe ones in a yellow sea.
