Theres A Spider In My Room - Lyrics by Barenaked Ladies


Lyrics
There's a spider in my room

There's a spider in my room


And then a voice above my head

Said if that spider were made dead
I'd better grow some fins 'cause

It would make it easier to swim

I don't like spiders and snakes

The way they crawl, the way they shake

If a spider gets killed how does that make it rain

How could I be the one to blame

A whisper drizzled down from the ice in its eyes
it said, "
Try pickin' on your own damn size,"

But the Hoover was quick, termination complete

In its bedroom home got a chance to eat.


In the corner beside my bed

Very busy spinning thread

Eight legs and a little head

I hear the thunder from outside

And the water's gettin' high

I don't like moths and bugs

They buzz, they get in the rugs

But where does a guy find some room
in this life raft home, a little rubber tomb


There's a spider in my room

There's a spider in my room
