[Verse 1]
Plans and schemes, thoughts and dreams
Who cares what they mean
When they work they're amazing things
When they don't I hear you scream
[Chorus]
Spiders and flies live and die
Six legs to stand on and two wings to fly
I can't remember and I can't decide
What was the season and the color of your eyes
[Verse 2]
Pharaohs and kings, favourite queens
Buried with their precious rings
When they lived they loved complete
But in their tombs I hear them scream
[Chorus]
Spiders and flies, live and die
Six legs to stand on and two wings to fly
I can't remember and I can't decide
What was the season and the color of your eyes
[Verse 3]
Psalms and spells, magic blast
Who cares what they cast
I dreamed I'd always love you complete
I never thought I'd hear you scream
[Chorus]
Spiders and flies, live and die
Eight legs to stand on and two wings to fly
It makes you wonder, why can't I
What was the reason for the colour of your eyes
[Outro]
Spiders and flies, live and die.....
