Spiders Waltz - Red Flag

Laying on the edge of the bed

There’s a little life overhead

I’m watching with detached interest

If only for a moment I’m impressed

It’s just another day in the corner of my room

It’s just another day I watch her spin her loom

And though she has her faults, she knows the spiders' waltz

Woe she never halts the spiders' waltz

They say this little widow never wed

Although the seamstress has a way with thread

So she spends her life in silent solutude

While her visitors are treaded fairly rude

And though she has her faults, she knows the spiders' waltz

Woe she never halts the spiders' waltz
