[00:00.00]Army Ants - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)
[00:01.90]Written by：Tom Waits/Kathleen Brennan
[00:03.81]The Whirligig Beetles are wary
[00:06.58]And fast with an organ to detect the ripples
[00:10.63]The Arachnid Moths lay their eggs inside
[00:13.22]Other insects along the borders of fields
[00:16.32]Or roads in clusters of white cocoons
[00:20.96]The Ribbed Pine Borer is a longhorn beetle
[00:24.45]Their antenna's are half the length
[00:26.42]Of their body and they feed on dead red pine
[00:32.19]Robber flies with their immobile heads
[00:35.10]Inject a paralyzing fluid into
[00:37.82]Their prey that they snatch from life in mid air
[00:42.09]The Snow Flea's mode of locomotion
[00:45.03]Strange and odd with a spiny tail mechanism
[00:49.55]With hooks and a protracted tube from
[00:52.12]The abdomen to enable moisture absorption
[00:58.53]The female praying Mantis devours
[01:02.40]The male while they are mating
[01:05.34]The male sometimes continues copulating
[01:09.20]Even after the female has bitten
[01:11.84]Off his head and part of his upper torso
[01:18.12]Every night wasps bite into the stem
[01:22.45]Of a plant lock their mandibles into position
[01:26.60]Stretch out at right angles to the stem and
[01:30.71]With legs dangling they fall asleep
[01:36.50]If one places a minute amount of liquor on a scorpion
[01:43.39]It will instantly go mad and sting itself to death
[01:52.17]The Bombardier Beetle when disturbed
[01:55.67]Defends itself by emitting a series of explosions
[02:00.98]Sometimes setting off 4 or 5 reports in succession
[02:06.66]The noises sound like miniature popgun blasts
[02:10.78]And are accompanied by a cloud of reddish
[02:14.25]Coloured vile smelling fluid
[02:21.14]It is commonly known that ants keep slaves
[02:25.76]Certain species the so called Sanguinary
[02:30.03]Ants in particular will raid the nests of other
[02:33.43]Ant tribes and kill the queen and
[02:36.66]Then kidnap many of the workers
[02:39.94]The workers are brought back
[02:41.83]To the captor's hive where they are
[02:44.00]Coerced into performing menial tasks
[02:50.31]And as we discussed last semester
[02:53.43]The Army Ants will leave nothing but your bones
[02:58.75]Perhaps you've encountered
[03:00.89]Some of these insects in your communities
[03:05.09]Displaying both their predatory and defense characteristics
[03:09.83]While imbedded within the walls of flesh
[03:12.83]And passing for what is most commonly recognized
[03:18.32]As human
