Lullaby Lyrics
On candy-striped legs, the spider man comes
Softly through the shadow of the evening sun
Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
Looking for a victim, shivering in bed
And searching out fear in the gathering gloom
When suddenly, a movement in the corner of the room
'There's nothing I can do,' I realize with a fright
'The spider man is having me for dinner tonight.'
Quietly he laughs, and shaking his head
Creeps closer now, and closer to the foot of the bed
And softer than shadow, and quicker than flies
His arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
"Be still, be calm, be quiet now, my precious boy
Don't struggle like that, I will only love you more."
And it's much too late to get away, or turn on the light
The spider man is having you for dinner tonight

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 spider man is always hungry
