Let the Insects Rule - Powerman 5000

No plan survives human contact

The odds are not on your side they all stacked

We had our chance

We had our way

But now it’s time to dig our own graves

Let the insects, let the insects rule

Let the insects, let the insects rule

Let them learn from the fools

Let the insects, let the insects rule

Eights legs on the cross to pray to

Let them become the boss, you had to

Yeah they were first

And we were cursed

Don’t be afraid it couldn’t get much worse

Let the insects, let the insects rule

Let the insects, let the insects rule

Let them learn from the fools

Let the insects, let the insects rule

They spoke in a language of clicks and ticks

They hid in the cracks and the city bricks

Laughed at us all and gathered their crumbs

As we bet it all on opposable thumbs

The higher they climbed

The deeper we sank

Until number one was no longer our rank

Trust us they said

We won’t leave you for dead

Trust us they said

As they cut off our heads
