Lyrics
When I woke up it was like falling through a web
Oh, I was entangled
Spider spit and sprawled and so had spelled my name
Your words, too, like so much flour, fall through a sieve
I can turn and ponder but all I hear is spider noise
No words, angry scared or tearful
Quick or careful, can find you or move you
Who do you think you are looking at me like that
Cat's got out of the bag and I need patience
When you had time to swallow my heart to follow my pride
To follow my pride...
So go wash up
Yeah get you home
No one will know
You can play the part with clean, crisp clothes
But my now what big teeth have grown
Your smile retains these cruel games
Of comic knocks only spiders play
And say so much till time gets tired out telling me
No words, angry scared or tearful
Quick or careful, can find you or move you
Who do you think you are looking at me like that
Cats got out of the bag and I need patience
When you had time to swallow my heart to follow my pride
To follow my pride...
Who do you hope to find when you cut me loose
Mayhem in your mind makes fire in your shoes
And you had time to swallow my heart to follow my pride
I bet you didn't even know just what it cost when you sold us all
