[Verse 1]
There is a spider in my dreams
Long and silent is his name
Cold as lightning is his smile
Final is his sting
[Verse 2]
His curse is deep as seven skies
Boys, I wouldn't tell you lies
The legends say he never sleeps
And he's never hungry long
[Verse 3]
He's got us, boys, I believe it's true
But I'm fighting till he lays me down
Run his foul black body through
Cleave him all asunder
[Verse 4]
Now think of your women, won't you boys
Think of your mother growing old
Think about your darling son
Spittin' the spider's eye
[Verse 5]
Up it is against him ride
We'll not take him by surprise
Give a scream down in your dreams
Let him know we're comin'
[Verse 1]
There is a spider in my dreams
Long and silent is his name
Cold as lightning is his smile
Final is his sting
