Black Spider

(album: Cheap Smell - 2018)

Black spider, white lies
Black spider

Trapped in a web
Of a lovesick spider
Words weave her in
From major to minor
He's building her up
Taking it higher
He'll never let go
He will never untie her

The lady bug's in his silver town
He spins her in and he turns her round
He's watching you, there's no getting out
His wish is your command

She's in the arms of a spider
He pacifies her
Caught on a high wire
She's all he desires
She's in the bed of a lion
Put there to admire
Caught on a high wire
In the arms of a spider

Trapped in the web
Of a sadistic minder
Spreading his threads
Trying to bind her
He's taking her down
To get him higher
Step by step
Paralyzed in the fiber

The lady bugs in his silver town
He spins her in and he turns her round
He's watching you, there's no getting out
His wish is your command

She's in the arms of a spider
He pacifies her
Caught on a high wire
She's all he desires
She's in the bed of a liar
Put there to admire
Caught on a high wire
In the arms of a spider

Black spider, white lies
Blind diamond
Black spider, white lies
Blind diamonds

She's in the arms of a spider
He pacifies her
Caught on a high wire
She's all he desires
She's in the bed of a liar
Put there to admire
Caught on a high wire
In the arms of a spider

Jet black spider, oh, oh
Barefaced liar

She's there to stay
Until the next fly
She's his pray
It's not the first time
In the arms of a spider, spider, spider, liar
