Bolt-lock your doors 
Alarm your cars 
And still we move in closer 
Every day 
Top of the list 
Is your smiling kids 
But we'll be smiling too 
So that's OK 
Oh, and by the way 
Thank you, because you're 
Giving, giving, giving 
And we're receiving 
No, no, we're taking 
Keeping the population down 

Your taxes paid, but 
Police waylaid 
And we knows 
When the school bus 
Comes and goes 
We're on your street, but 
You don't see us 
Or, if you do 
You smile and say Hello 

But don't underestimate us 
When you are 
Giving, giving, giving 
And we're receiving 
No, no, we're taking 
Just keeping 
The population down 
You're giving, giving, giving 
Well, it's your own fault 
For reproducing 

We're just keeping 
The population down
