[Verse 1]
Back in May I had a funny feelin’
That's when bad news called me on the phone
He said, "The one you love, he needs a doctor"
There were signs, I should have known

[Pre-Chorus]
Bad news came to my window
And offered me advice
And he whispered in my ear
All the words I wasn't ready to hear

[Chorus]
It's the year of the spider (Year of the spider)

[Verse 2]
I went home to hold my old friend’s hands but
There wasn't hardly anything there
When I wasn't looking they had crumbled
Leaving our time worn web bare

[Pre-Chorus]
Bad news came to my window
And offered me advice
And he whispered in my ear
All the words I wasn't ready to hear
[Chorus]
It's the year of the spider (Year of the spider)
Year of the spider (Year of the spider)

[Bridge]
I know that change is good
But it hurts, and it is frightful
But you really gotta shake that tree
And see all that it leaves

[Outro]
It’s the year of the spider (Year of the spider)
It’s the year of the spider (Year of the spider)
It’s the year of the spider (Year of the spider)
It’s the year of the spider (Year of the spider)
Oh woah
