THE ANT

The ant crawled

Across the patio

Came up to me Went under my toe

This was not A smart thing to do

If I stood up I'd turn it to goo

When it started to

Crawl up my leg

It tickled so bad I started to beg

When it went up And into my pants

Music or not I started to dance

When everyone laughed

At the sight that I made

I told them, "Shut up, And get me some Raid."
