On candystripe legs spiderman comes
Softly
through the shadow of the evening sun
Stealing past the windows of the blissfully
dead
Looking for the victim shivering in
bed
Searching out fear in the gathering
gloom and
Suddenly a movement in the corner
of the room
And there is nothing I can do
when I
Realise with fright
That the
spiderman is having me
For dinner
tonight
Quietly he laughs and
shaking his head
Creeps closer now closer
to the foot of the bed
And softer than
shadow and quicker than flies
His arms are
all around me and his tongue in my eyes
Be
still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
Don't struggle like that or I will only love
you more
For it's much too late to get away
or turn on the light
The spiderman is having
you for dinner tonight
And I feel
like I'm being eaten
By a thousand million
shivering furry holes
And I know that in
the morning
I will wake up in the shivering
cold
And the spiderman is always hungry
Spiderman is always hungry
I spy
something with this
