Why Does a Spider Have Eight Legs?

Two of them are for the steering wheel;
To drive unsafely is to be a heel. 
One is to make penciled calculations;
To make missteps is to spoil relations. 
Two more make amorous advances;
Based on calculations, he has good chances.
One makes careful notes, oh so detailed,
So, one day, his memoirs can be retailed.
Two are needed to solemnly pray 
That a baby spider is not on its way.
