Lyrics

Verse 1
I was lying in my bed, feeling just fine,
Counting down the minutes, time to unwind.
When I saw it on the wall, creeping slow and low,
A spider big as Texas, putting on a show.

Chorus
Whoever said out of sight, out of mind,
Never had a spider disappear, leaving them in a bind.
Under the covers, I dove, scared outta my head,
Cause that spider's out there somewhere, maybe under my bed!

Verse 2
I grabbed a shoe and flashlight, ready for the fight,
But that eight-legged critter vanished outta sight.
I peeked behind the dresser, and I checked the floor,
It’s like it teleported, can’t find it anymore.

Chorus
Whoever said out of sight, out of mind,
Never had a spider disappear, leaving them in a bind.
Under the covers, I dove, scared outta my head,
Cause that spider's out there somewhere, maybe under my bed!

Bridge
I'm thinking 'bout moving, changing my address,
Selling the house, and cleaning up this mess.
But then I see it there, on the ceiling high,
Waving at me with a cheeky spider sigh.

Chorus
Whoever said out of sight, out of mind,
Never had a spider disappear, leaving them in a bind.
Under the covers, I dove, scared outta my head,
Cause that spider's out there somewhere, maybe under my bed!

Outro
So now I sleep with one eye open, dreaming of the day,
That spider packs its bags and quietly goes away.
Till then I’ll keep my flashlight, and my trusty shoe,
Ready for the battle, just in case it’s you-know-who!

Chorus
Whoever said out of sight, out of mind,
Never had a spider disappear, leaving them in a bind.
Under the covers, I dove, scared outta my head,
Cause that spider's out there somewhere, maybe under my bed!

Ending
Yeah, that spider’s out there somewhere, maybe under my bed!
Maybe under my bed, oh, maybe under my bed!

Man, I know that's right! This is quite fun and funny. Really good storytelling. I'm assuming by the voice, this is AI. Anyway, the underlying track is really good. I really like the bouncy, quirky instrumentation that screams, "This is a fun song!"

I love it! The bright plucked synth sounds bounces along and really adds to the humour of the song (not that this kind of scene is humour to my wife), but the treatment you've given it is spot on. Sounds like a song I might hear on the radio.

This is 100% my wife and I've just proved it having read this out to her, she loved it. I am the shoe/slipper wielder in our house and if I miss getting the spider there is big trouble! The lyric is a perfect take on the conundrum, would love to hear it sung (I'm not volunteering!)
