I'M Just a Little Spider

I'm just a little spider And I really am quite shy So why is it when you see me You shout, scream and cry. I do not mean to frighten you So I come out late at night And if you are quite nervous Don't turn off the light. I could be hiding in your cupboard Or underneath your chair And if you need the loo at night Remember I could be there. Why is it when you see me You start whacking me with your shoe I'm only a little spider What have I done to you. Before you go to sleep tonight Just remember what I said Spiders can hide anywhere You better check your bed.
