Correction Lyrics Spider by Emily Saliers

Lyrics

Welcome to a strange feast
Your host, the fundamentalist or capital beast
The ones expected expect it the least
Fall in the silk feel
But clang goes the hammer, it's stronger than steel

Spinnerets, drag lines and pedipalps
It's a cache you're buying in, you're not getting out
No browbeating sanctions or chest beating
The most dangerous enemy appears to be sleeping
That's the company you're keeping

Spider in your empty web
What are you waiting for?
Spider in your empty web
What are you waiting for?

Dog days, dog days I'm Sirius
Mercurial god of financial gain, souls of the underworld
We all know Jesus walked on water
But so does the fishing spider
As the story goes, so does the fighter...

The end, it's been foretold
So what are the chances, escaping the web scape between the branches?
Or there in the corners, or under the bed
Or the tangle of thoughts that make up your head?
No contest between the spider and you
Ha! Eight legs are faster than two!

Spider in your empty web
What are you waiting for?
Spider in your empty web
What are you waiting for?

Spider in your empty web
What are you waiting for?
Spider in your empty web
What are you waiting for?
Spider in your empty web
What are you waiting for?
Spider in your empty web
What are you waiting for?
