Lyrics

The Spider And The Fly

(verse 1)
Why is it that the guy
Is the unsuspecting fly
And the girl is the spider on the web
No one seems to care
That she'll eat me like a pear
Saving flies is not a cause célèbre

(verse 2)
She spun her web so strong
And it wasn't very long
Until there was no chance for an escape
I decided to give up
I was as helpless as a pup
When I saw a piece of Superman's cape

(chorus)
Go ahead and try
Said the spider to the fly
But you're never gonna leave my web
again
Many flies have tried
But none of them survived
I suggest that you relax and watch me
Spin

(verse 3)
My fear I can not hide
I need arachnicide
Or I'll end up being her dessert
A big red hourglass
Is plastered on her ass
Black Widows can really make you hurt

(verse 4)
She said I wed thee with this ring
As she clipped off my left wing
And for balance she clipped the right one
too
I took her for my wife
For what was left of my short life
Something old something borrowed
something blue

(chorus)
Go ahead and try
Said the spider to the fly
But you're never gonna leave my web
again
Many flies have tried
But none of them survived
I suggest that you relax and watch me
Spin
