Insects Rule - 布兰登 班森[00:00:00]
Written by:Brendan Benson/Jason Falkner[00:00:00]
Once knew a woman[00:00:29]
She was skin and bones[00:00:30]
Invited all the insects to come into her home[00:00:32]
She trained them so well[00:00:35]
They could answer her phone[00:00:37]
The day finally came when the poor woman was overthrown[00:00:38]
Her husband returned home from voyages at sea[00:00:43]
To find his lovely wife dead and a spider sipping tea[00:00:47]
He drew his knife and swore[00:00:50]
He would have the spider's eyes[00:00:52]
An army of red ants nearly took him by surprise[00:00:54]
The sailor and his wife lay dead while neighbors peeked in[00:00:57]
Outside the dogs were mesmerized[00:01:00]
By the humming from within[00:01:01]
News spread throughout the town of the insects' arrival[00:01:03]
People gathered in the church to pray to God[00:01:06]
And quote from the Bible[00:01:09]
Men came with gasoline and torches abright[00:01:12]
A billion flies covered the skies[00:01:15]
'Til it was dark as night[00:01:17]
The cries were barely heard beneath the buzzing of the bees[00:01:18]
Now the insects rule so get down on your knees[00:01:21]
And the town crier said[00:01:59]
You God fearing people had better beware[00:02:02]
Gather up your idols and begin to prepare[00:02:05]
The time has come the locusts have taken the air[00:02:08]
Negotiations are in effect the bugs don't even care[00:02:12]
Men came with gasoline and torches abright[00:02:17]
A billion flies covered the skies[00:02:20]
'Til it was dark as night[00:02:22]
The cries were barely heard beneath the buzzing of the bees[00:02:24]
Now the insects rule so get down on your knees[00:02:27]
Now the insects rule so get down on your knees[00:02:37]
Now the insects rule so get down on your knees[00:02:40]
Now the insects rule so get down on your knees[00:02:43]
Now the insects rule so get down on your knees[00:02:46]
