E B E
E C#m
Daddy, daddy, daddy, hurry!
A C#m B E
I saw something scu-rry!
E B
Son, what's all this screaming for?
C#m A
You're gonna wake the neighbors next door!
E B E
E C#m
Daddy, I think there's a spider on my floor!
A C#m B E
Is it? And will you squish it?
E B
You call me in here in the middle of the night
C#m A
To come into your room and destroy life?
E B E
Is that what they teach you in Sunday School?
E C#m
But Daddy, it's gross; it's got a million legs!
A C#m B E
A billion eyes! A trillion eggs!
E B
Son, it's not disgusting, it's just reality;
C#m A
Take a deep breath and appreciate life!
E B E
E B
Look how delicate his legs are
C#m A
Crawling across your bedroom floor!
E B

C#m A
Arachnid!!! That's right!
E B
We're living in a world that's full of creatures,
C#m A
Big and small, hairy and slimy,
E B E
You are not the center of the world?
E B
How would you feel if a giant hand
C#m A
Came out of the sky and decided to crush you?

E C#m
I guess I'd be scared, but Daddy!
A C#m B E
What if the spider hurts me?
*pause*

He didn't hurt you yet, did he, son?

Your logic is flawed, you come undone!
C B E
Swallow your pride.
E B
What if the spider said the same thing:
C#m A
Daddy, daddy, kill that kid!
E B E
E C#m
That's the point, dad! What if he did?
A C#m B E
That's why I have to strike first!
E
What if he did?
B
What if he didn't???
C#m A
What if the world was made of pudding???????
E B E
E B
All I'm saying is consider
C#m
Something
A
Besides your
E B E
Thirst, for blood

Maybe he's got a family!

Understanding,
C#m A
Finally you're becoming human!!!

Put him in a cup and take him outside

Godspeed.
