The Spi-Der Who Loved Me

Help! I called as my wing caught in a web
It’s cold out here and I want to get back
To the warm, moist bin my family’s in
Fuzzy legs appeared, I counted eight
Then a great, big head and round red eyes…

I gulped – Help! I cried weakly again
I swear the creature grinned
Then as my buzz grew faint 
It peered up close and did declare

You’re too sweet to eat
So fly away fly to your family
My folks are deadly
I love you so leave me
