Lyrics
Ol' spider comes a crawlin'
and in his web you're fallin'
and once you're there that spider's
gonna say you're just his size.
But don't trust his kindness
his poison causes blindness
so you can't look him in his eyes
and see he's spinning lies
Ol' spider's been decieving and he's
got you all believing that his poison
isn't poison and it's oh, so good for you
But that bite won't get no better and
the poison's getting deeper and
if you don't watch out that poison
turns your soul all black and blue
So run, run, run from that spider's bite
That bite makes all things wrong seem oh so right.
You know it's gonna cut you like a knife
Funny how one bite can change your life
