The Song of the Leafcutter Ant

Ten hut! OK, troops.  Sing along with me...

1-2-3-4-5-6-7 -- 1-2-3-4-5-6-7

Follow me, follow me; I will lead you up the tree
If all of you would like to see Sister Harpy, follow me

1-2-3-4-5-6-7 -- 1-2-3-4-5-6-7

Ten hut! OK, troops. Chant along with me....


We're going to the top
We're not about to stop
With steady work and togetherness
We're going to the top (2-3-4)
Steady (2-3-4) -- Steady (2-3-4)
Work - Work - Work (2-3-4)
Together (2-3-4) -- Together (2-3-4)
Work - Work - Work (2-3-4)

With steady work the job gets done
With many hands the work is fun
All together we'll succeed
And reach the top of this tree!

1-2-3-4-5-6-7 -- 1-2-3-4-5-6-7

Follow me, follow me; I will lead you up the tree
By my magic you will be as small and mobile as me

In your life you'll find some trees without branches to hold onto
That is when you'll need hand of a friend who can guide you
So follow me, follow me; I will lead you up the tree

1-2-3-4-5-6-7 -- 1-2-3-4-5-6-7


OK, troops! (2-3-4) You are now small like me.
We are marching up the tree.
And we are going to see, the wonderful harpy!
Stand up (2-3-4).
Marching formation (2-3-4).
March!
