LYRICS
Familiar faces say hi 
Streetcar go by
Carrying fish plates and first dates 
Finger waves and hard hairstylees
Corner conversations 
Pop lock-in and dropping
High school sweetheart at the gas station
Wonder who he’s dating now
If he’s married now 
If he’s busy thinking what was like I am now 
Should I ask him how he doing 
If he going to the second line 
Are you going to the second line
We’re going to the second line
 
Double Dutch and free lunch 
Mean girls and sweet ones
Dudes that like me
Dudes that dodge me 
The girls wanna fight me
Cause like Kimy I’m dark and pretty
Confident and saditty like Whitley 
Yet down to earth like Freddie 
I’m down to ride no Bentley 
At home it was Kool-Aid packs and Disney 
Lizzy McGuire and 1 Saturday morning on the weekees 
I never had a pair of Jordan’s 
Don’t want ‘em 
My jump shot don’t need sneakers more costly than I can afford them 
Rice crispy treats and noodles 
Home alone 
Macaulay Culkin 
Cause sometimes
Cause sometimes 
I need more space than stars can give me 
More sky than God provides me 
And TV so I won’t get lonely 
 
Where do the ants go...
Why do they run away 
Leave me alone now 
I wanna make you stay 
 
Gotta JanSport book sack 
A girl be talking ‘bout me in third period 
Oh well
The day was still made for me 
Reruns of Martin still waiting on me 
More cake for me 
More cake for me 
Amy scare me 
Ashley make me jealous and Cherolyn my best friend
Brian my boyfriend 
Gay as his father 
But his love letters be sweeter than snowballs in the east and freezy street 
All wrapped in one love letter and a warm sweater in December  
Man I’m better 
I’m better
Whatever whatever (whatever)
 
Where do the ants go...
I wanna know why they run away (please don’t run away now)
Leave me alone now (okay I will)
I wanna make you stay
(It’s just the colors)
 
I’m prettier than Sunday 
And on Monday’s I be trippin’
My mama want me to wash the dishes while she make my brother lazy and distant 
I’m moving at 18
Fast forward 10 years later it’s the same routine
And I’m complaining 
Catching bucks 
Like that’s a new thing
Man I want everything or anything 
Thrift clothes in a basket or a hummy truck 
My life funny as what 
Like Bruce with a cut
Just my luck I’d end up famous and blunt 
Rolling a what
Turned down 
While everyone is busy rolling
Everybody busy turning up
Everybody we busy turning up
 
Where do the ants go...
I wanna know why they run away
Leave me alone now 
I think I wanna make you stay

Where do the ants go…
They always running away
Leave me alone now
I wanna make you stay
