Well the royal generation has hatched and now they're ready to fly
They've got one job to do before their wings fall off, then they die
And when the females emerge, they're ready for a life of servitude
So those clumsy virgins fly and go to meet their dude
Super colony
Under a spruce tree
We make our own medicine and live in a comfortable mound
It's like our own hometown
So we gather all the seed we need for the coming year
And try to shake the parasites and see what we can commandeer
And if you're a good queen, you better go secure that nest
And multiply your new family cause you know that's what you do best
Living in the underground
There's rivals around
We fight our own battles and we eat our victims deep inside of our mound
Underground
On the edge of town
Under a spruce tree
Super colony

I walk into
The only bank
That will accept me
Someone of my rank
My knees are knockin'
I got a stank
But I was rockin'
Before I sank
I got nothin' to my name
But the reeds are swayin' to and fro
All I can expect is the same
Yet now I'm sayin', behold and lo
I'm sittin' here with a choice
And one is violence
I think I'll go with the wind
Disappear in silence

Searching for the Stone

You’re asking me if I understand
I don’t know, I just do what I can
If it’s not enough, well that’s fine
I’ll make it up in my own sweet time
If you don’t mind, I’m just gonna live my life
Not to trim, but to leave all alone, bears a little more fruit when it gets full grown
So now as I lean over your meaning’s edge
And I cope with the dizziness of the things that you have left unsaid
Then when I wake and I rise up from my bed
And I try to remember the source of the line, but I realize I’m out of my head
So I lay back down, and I close my eyes
And I notice it’s all very clear, it just took me a while to realize
Now the waters are rising, and the river’s swole
And the fish rise up like birds, and the rays of light beam into my soul
So I scan the horizon searching for the stone
And I know when the time is right, I will have to head out on my own
When I was young, they tried to clip my wings
Now I’m older, and a little more wise, and I try not to dwell upon these things
