Lyrics
The words as written. The Gogolis’ lyrics are co-written by a person and AI, and a human chooses the final words.
Intro
Look down low where the tall grass grows —
ONE little ant, and off it goes!
One little ant with a crumb to carry home.
Chorus
Step, step, step, step!
Step, step, step, step!
Over the stones and under the leaves —
Step, step, step, step, all the way home!
Verse 1
One little ant finds a sugar cube.
Too big to lift! So the ant calls out —
And NINE MORE ANTS come running through.
Now there are TEN, and the sugar moves!
Chorus
Step, step, step, step!
Step, step, step, step!
Over the stones and under the leaves —
Step, step, step, step, all the way home!
Verse 2
Ten little ants in a wobbly line.
Ten more join, then ten more in time!
Can you count them? There are so many —
Keep them marching — ONE HUNDRED ants!
Verse 3
One ant lifts a crumb as big as its head,
Up and over, like nothing at all.
Lilly says, “Watch me!” and pulls at a stone...
Lilly pulls and pulls — but it won’t move!
Down!
Toti looks down a little round hole...
DOWN WE GO! Past the roots and stones!
Through tunnels and rooms and stairs —
A THOUSAND ants, with a thousand doors!
Rain
Then the rain comes down, pitter-patter-pat,
And one clever ant holds a leaf up high —
The tiniest umbrella in all the world.
End
So the line marches on, with the food held high,
And right at the back, three friends walk by,
With one tiny crumb, marching home!

One little ant finds a sugar cube far too big to lift and calls out, and nine more come running: now there are ten, and the sugar moves. Ten become a hundred in a wobbly line, which is the part to count along with.
An ant lifts a crumb as big as its own head while Lilly pulls and pulls at a stone that will not move. Toti looks down a little round hole and down they go, past roots and tunnels to a thousand ants behind a thousand doors. When the rain comes, one clever ant holds up the tiniest umbrella in the world. The chorus is four steps, again and again, all the way home.
