So you ask me how I got here.
My head in the wall.
Do you really have the time
to listen to it all.
The day began at five am.
A little early I must say.
It started out just as others had.
Just like any other day.
Then on the way to work I went
and I tripped upon an ant.
You don't believe me,
You say you just can't?
Well the wall was just finished
Just earlier that morning.
They didn't leave a sign,
not a single warning.
But the ant was not the one
who got me stuck this way.
Nor was it the bee,
the dog or the hay.
Who do you ask was the culprit,
who could of done such a thing.
Well you wouldn't believe it,
but an untied shoe string.
