[Verse 1]
On candy stripe legs the spiderman comes
Softly through the shadows of the evening sun
Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
Seeking for the victim shivering in bed

[Chorus 1]
Searching out fear in the gathering gloom
Suddenly, a movement in the corner of the room
And there is nothing I can do, I realise with fright
The spiderman is having me for dinner tonight

[Verse 2]
Quietly he laughs, ha ha, shaking his head
Creeps closer now, closer to the foot of the bed
And softеr than shadows and quicker than flies
His arms are all around mе, his tongue in my eyes

[Chorus 2]
Be still, be calm, be quiet now, my precious boy
Don't struggle like that or I will only love you more
It's much too late to get away or turn on the light
The spiderman is having you for dinner tonight

[Bridge]
And I feel like I'm being eaten
By a thousand million shivering furry holes
And I know that in the morning
I will wake up in the shivering cold
The spiderman is always hungry
Is always hungry
[Outro]
Come into my parlor, said the spider to the fly
For I have a little something here
