Lullaby

On candy stripe legs the Spiderman comes
 Softly through the shadow of the evening sun
 Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
 Looking for the victim shivering in bed
 Searching out fear in the gathering gloom
 And suddenly a movement in the corner of the room
 And there is nothing I can do when I realize with fright
 The Spiderman is having me for dinner tonight
 ♪
 Quietly he laughs and shaking his head
 Creeps closer now, closer to the foot of the bed
 And softer than shadow and quicker than flies
 His arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
 Be still, be calm, be quiet now my precious boy
 Don't struggle like that or I will only love you more
 For it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
 The Spiderman is having you for dinner tonight
 And I feel like I'm being eaten
 By a thousand million shivering furry holes
 And I know that in the morning
 I will wake up in the shivering cold
 And the Spiderman is always hungry
 (The Spiderman is always hungry)
