lyrics

She summons up the Flying Spider
I fly right down and sit beside her
I only wanna please delight her
I never would or wanna bite her

She says define infatuation
The ship that sunk a thousand nations
And what about ejaculation?
I said I'm just the Flying Spider

You built your web now you must sleep in it
You stole my soul, you sticky creep, innit…

There is no God, there's only Jesus
The 8-eyed spy who always sees us
Like Through a Glass but not so darkly
I'm not so bright as much as sparkly

There is no rhyme there's only reason
A Christmas card for every season
And I am just the flying spider
Avoiding ways to say I want you

You built the world in seven days they say
And ever since you've been on holiday

She summons up the Flying Spider
I play for her my synthesizer
I only wanna please delight her
A universe of sound inside her

And I am just the Flying Spider
I am just the Flying Spider
Hi, I'm just the Flying Spider
I'll always be the Flying Spider
