Spider, spider on the wall
Black hairy legs stealthily crawl,
The way you pounce upon your prey
Evil cunning by night and day,
The beautiful web you constantly weave
So cleverly designed to deceive.
The sickening way you make them die,
The fat black beetle, the buzzing fly,
One impulsive visit with you
Then their lives are surely through.
Inject them with your acid sting
Peace to their heaving bodies bring.
Enjoy your meal spider, do
For sentence of death you're under too...
