Spider
from Chris Merritt:
Songs From Brokeland (2011)
I am a spider-man
Think Kafka over Stan Lee
Actually that works too
Feel like the world can’t stand me
Life as a spider
Hide in basement to make it through the night
Sat down beside her
Now she’s trying to crush me run for life
But you hear the voice call like another lover
Girlfriend you a little chimp
But you start to evolve when you hear that little voice
But you hear the voice call like another lover
Girlfriend you a little chimp
But you start to evolve when you hear that little voice
You stop in your tracks when you hear that little voice
But you start to evolve when you hear that little voice
The weight of my bones holds me down on this island
Always I’ve loved you but life breaks us up
Do you remember driving your car at one in the morning for truck food
Amy I can make you cry
Maybe I can sing you a song you’ll like
Here on the playground swings
You and I doing our thing well
Don’t you want to play no more?
Don’t you want to play no more?
Life is a strange fading voice in the darkness
Here you and I sit on blue lonely earth
Anyone out there over the moon for millions of light years or worse
Struggling to just get by
Never mind you and I
I been making beautiful things
But everything I do it goes clear past everybody’s head I think
