Songtexte Spider - The Mighty Sparrow

About nine o'clock in the evening
Me and meh girl on meh bed relaxing
Meh little daughter Iris
Saying goodnight so she want a kiss, but
Before the mother could have tell she no
How you don't know, she opened the door
Stand up straight jam up to the wall
She eye open big and she start to bawl...

"Daddy, daddy, there's a spider on top of mummy!
Ah sure she ain't know, otherwise she'd a-make it go
Take a piece of wood and make sure you flog it good"
She said, "Don't look at that big fat hairy spider on mummy leg!"

You could imagine now how ah frightened
But ah ain't sayin' nothing
The woman lay down there, I beside her
And trembling for so 'fraid spider
Ah say "Just in case it jump on me
Ah have meh blackjack in meh hand all ready
Sound like a cascabel on the bed
When ah finish with the spider is dead he dead"
You hear the child...

"Daddy, daddy, there's a spider on top of mummy!
Ah sure she ain't know, otherwise she'd a-make it go
Take a piece of wood and make sure you flog it good"
She said, "Don't look at that big fat hairy spider on mummy leg!"

Accidentally ah touch something
And no for so ready meh blackjack jumping
Ah try to wrap him up in a blanket
Ah didn't want the spider to see it
Ooops, spider come and show he face
Ah start sharing licks inside the place
Meh girl start to bawl, "Boy what wrong with you?
This ain't a real spider, is a tattoo!"
And the child bawling...

"Daddy, daddy, there's a spider on top of mummy!
Ah sure she ain't know, otherwise she'd a-make it go
Take a piece of wood and make sure you flog it good"
She said, "Don't look at that big fat hairy spider on mummy leg!"
