Squashed Ants Lyrics by Puah Hedz

Despite The Odds

0

Nick Sweepah:

When I try to avoid squashing critters
It seems my feet are too big
I try not to get it twisted
And tell myself that it was quick
Painless, But I know that ain’t the case
The aimless path I travel often leads to open space
Of course this space takes a long time to traverse
So many thoughts run through my head
And many lines get rehearsed
And then reversed, re-arranged
Thought processes are mutated, and deranged
And when thе flames
Have died down, and my brain
Can rеst and think
It takes on the role of an overflowing sink
I guess, regrets, are the main ingredients
I’m often seeing them
But the effect, is always immediate
Outcome inevitable
I feel real terrible
For a second, and then I feel worse
Every good wish becomes a curse
On the land, and sink in which I am immersed
This ain’t the first time it’s happened
God, there’s a thought I didn’t need
Slowly the world collapses
Around myself and the deed
That was just done
A dozen ants reduced to crumbs
My heart goes numb
Beating ceases for a moment
Lift my foot, and then I zone in
These are just a few from out of millions
(and millions and millions...) Destiny’s minions
My final opinion, it was all down to chance
I hit the streets, feeling better
My outlook is enhanced
And it’d stay that way, if not for the endless parade of ants...

(chorus x 2)
Tip toe tip toe watch where ya go
Ya just don't know (crunching sound)
And now it's to late what can you do
Ten little ants and a snail stuck to the sole of ya shoe

Muphin:

I was wandering, light footed not stomping
Head bopping with gas dreams
Knocking my head about through the headphones
I'd just left home.. ready to roam over to G.P's lair
Draino was already there.. prepared to put down a track
Avoiding those tricky cracks and gaps
In the pavement that like to watch ya hands splat
And get all types of pebbles and crap up in the skin
Feelin quite cheerful and the sun relaxing me
Like rain pitter pattering on a tin
Roof..hoping that later I'd be sipping that positive soup
Jay bought a booth which has next to no use
Feelin like the red caboose
Thinkin I can make it up the next hill
Avoiding ant kill
I'm at a standstill and if I proceed I run the risk
Of crushing an innocent ant into a thousand little bits..
But if.. I don't move I'll never get anywhere
So I 'm mobile again but very cautious
Careful..try to be flawless
Ants have real lives it ain't a game of gauntlet
Thoughtless would be to grab a hose and stick it in an ant hill..
Then watch them flood, that's the type of shit I used to do when
I was a young ,dumb and immature dud
I used to wonder if they got stuck in mud
Or whether they ran from the feet
That squashed their fragile bodies into the concrete
It's steep this incline..
So many things appear to me to be like these ants in my line
I find that sometimes I do things
In which at that exact moment
I wish I could take back
Because it's only then that your aware..
It's only really then and really right there
That ya realise it's just a little too late

(Chorus x 3)
