Cover art for Termites lyrics by Protest the Hero

Bfgoodwin's got it right (can't argue with Rody himself haha)

Interesting tidbit from Wikipedia: "According to Muslim tradition, when Solomon died he was standing watching the work of his Jinn, while leaning on his cane. There he silently died, but did not fall. He remained in this position, and the Jinn, thinking he was still alive watching them work, kept working. But termites were eating the cane, so that the body of Solomon fell after forty days. Thereafter, the Jinn (along with all humans) regretted that they did not know more than God had allotted them to know."
