VIPs of the Earth

Lyrics Christiane Duchesne, Paul Kunigis Music Paul Kunigis
Performers Glen Bowser

We are the kings of the earth
Believe us when we say
Without us there would be no berries
No tomatoes, corn or hay

Nothing to eat for the herds of sheep
For the cows and for the dogs
Without us, without us
Nothing in the ground
Would ever grow
Oh no, no, no, no, no

We till the soil, we give it air
It’s work that no one sees
We are the worms and we have flair
We are the earth’s VIPs

They’re so ugly and slimy!
We are the kings of the earth
It wouldn’t be too nice
If there were no more carrots
No cabbage and no rice

Nothing of course for
the camel, the horse
The lions or the hogs
Without us, without us
Nothing in the ground
Would ever grow
Oh no, no, no, no, no

Do you think I’m lying?
If we didn’t spend our days
Tilling the soil
It would be as hard
As rock, rock, rock, rock ‘n’ roll!

We till the soil, we give it air
It’s work that no one sees
You’d be doomed
Without our derrières
We are the earth’s VIPs

We are the worms
We are the earth’s VIPs
