Lyrics (unofficial)

[added Sept. 20, 2016]

Sitting in my white room
As phantom moments pass
The world looks through this window
But it's blocked out by the glass

I pretend that trees and chimney tops
Are patterns on a shirt
??? [0:45] cup is buzz and sway
The schoolgirls come to flirt

Ahhh, it's an insect world
Ahhh, just an insect world

Actors with wings
Mantas go zings
In the insect world

Look a little closer
Scorpions driving cars
Wasps up here like traffic lights
Locusts slow my shars [1:37]

Ants invade the Hilton
Termites in the nars/bars [1:44]
Beetles on the telephone
Fighting sex change stars

Ahhh, it's an insect world
Ahhh, just an insect world

Actors that sting
Mantas goes bring me an insect world

Beetles on the telephone
Moulting sex change stars
Bow bug selling papers
Hominids conquer Mars

Ahhh, it's an insect world
Ahhh, just an insect world

Mantas [3:17] that sting
Mantas goes bring me an insect world
