one day i would be a king

the spiders were all over the place
big black monsters flying in
from outer space
they made such a horrible face
they made me jump across my room
i was hoping to be the bride
but chose instead to be the groom
my white tuxedo fit me especially thin
my wife-to-be kept putting on her grin;
we listened to Major Tom while sipping our
favorite tonic and gin
hearing a large chorus singing a slow song
we didn't think anything could ever go wrong!!!!!!!!!!
hearing a large chorus singing a slow song
that was five years ago plus a couple of days
they've all passed in a purple haze
while we marched in a glam rock parade
it was fun to constantly get laid
in the public park where we danced on our own private stage
and saw spiders crawling out of their cage
they were all over the place
big black monsters flying in
from outer space
and they made such a horrible face
i could hear them sing:
one day i would be a king
and she would be my queen
and we would see an amazing double rainbow
and know what all the ancients came to know
how to stand by an open window
with an elegant ease
becoming the stillness and the breeze
the spiders were all over the place
big black monsters flying in
from outer space
and they made such a horrible face.
