Spider has eight legs you know
Spins its web the patterns flow
There's something in my eye
Bloodshot in disguise
God knows I really tried
Making the big time
Aiming to climb high
Scattered seeds can't fight the cold
Circus horse just wants to hold
There's something in my eye
Bloodshot in disguise
God knows I'm really tired
Let's make the big time
Aiming to climb high
Let's make the big time
Aiming to climb high
Aiming to climb high
Spider has eight legs you know
Spins its web the patterns flow
There's something in my eye
Bloodshot in disguise
God knows I really tried
Making the big time
Aiming to climb high
Scattered seeds can't fight the cold
Circus horse just wants to hold
There's something in my eye
Bloodshot in disguise
God knows I'm really tired
Let's make the big time
Aiming to climb high
Let's make the big time
Aiming to climb high
Aiming to climb high
Spider has eight legs you know
