Verse:
Dbm
On candystripe legs spiderman comes,
A
Softly through the shadow of the evening sun.
Dbm
Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead,
A
Looking for the victim shivering in bed.
Dbm
Searching out fear in the gathering gloom,
A
And suddenly! a movement in the corner of the room!
Dbm
And there is nothing I can do when I realise with fright
A
That the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight!

Verse 2:
Dbm
Quietly he laughs, and shaking his head
A
Creeps closer now, closer to the foot of the bed,
Dbm
And softer than shadow and quicker than flies,
A
His arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes...
Dbm
"Be still, be calm, be quiet now, my precious boy,
A
Don't struggle like that, or I will only love you more,
Dbm
For it's much too late to get away or turn on the light;
A
The spiderman is having you for dinner tonight!"
Verse 3:
Gbm
And I feel like I'm being eaten
A
By a thousand million shivering furry holes,
Gbm
And I know that in the morning
A
I will wake up in the shivering cold...
C#m( )
And the spiderman is always hungry...
