[Verse 1]
[D]Now Spider -Dan said to Spider -Mother,
I'll tell you what I've told
you brothers.
[F]You must [D]go out and learn to survive.
Grab some food to stay alive.
You see spiders,
eat bugs, mosquitoes and flies.
Those funny little things
that fly in the sky.
You spin a web, that's where they stick.
But the myth out of this
made Dan feel sick.
But Dan went out in his [C]backyard
and he [D]spun a web.
It wasn't that hard.
He waited till dark
and he [C]stood nearby.
[D]Till along came Beatrice
the [C]butterfly.[D][C]
She [D]flew to and fro like
[C]butterflies do.
When she [D]hit Dan's weapon,
[C]she snuck like glue.
She said, [D]help me! too [C]young to die.
[D]Give me a break.
I just [C]learned how to fly.
Come [D]on, Mr. Spider.
[C]Be a nice fella.
[D]I used to be a caterp[C]illar.
I'm [D]just getting used to my
brand new [C]wings.
[D]Look at me.
I'm just [C]an itty bitty [D]thing.
[C]Dan [F]shook his head, said, I don't [Gm]know.
I [F]can't eat that.
Oh, [Eb]no, oh, [F]no.[Gm]
I [F]guess I have to let you [Gm]go.
I [F]can't eat that.
Oh, no, oh, no.
[Eb]But [D]shortly after,
there was a noise out back.
was a cockroach in his tuxedo,
and [C]Hattie said, I [D]knew I should
[C]have stayed in bed.
Help [D]me, it's Henry, I'm [C]stuck in a web.
[D]Dan appeared to degen[C]erate lies.
[D]Help me, somebody,
[C]do something fast.
[D]Please, Mr. Spider, [C]leave me alone.
I got [D]a wife a[C]nd 32 kids at h[D]ome.
Dan [F]shook his head, said, [Eb]I don't kn[F]ow.[Gm]
I [F]can't eat that, oh [Eb]no, no.
[F]guess [Gm]I'll[F] have to let you go,
[Gm]cause I [F]can't eat that, oh [Eb]no, oh [F]no.
[Eb]No soone[D]r than the coast[C] was clear,
[D]Merv the mosquito came [C]buzzing so near,
He [D]didn't see what lay [C]ahead,
he [D]flew straight into that [C]spider's [D]web,
He said, wait a minute, you [C]can't eat me,
[D]take a good look,
I'm awfully [C]skinny,
[D]I know this may sound [C]some
what outrageous,
I've [D]got a flu bug, [C]I might be contagious.
[D]Dan sho[F]ok his head, said, I don't know
[Gm]I ca[F]n't eat that, oh[Eb] no, oh no[F][Gm]
I [F]guess I have to let you go
[Gm]Cause I [F]can't eat that,
oh [Eb]no, oh [F]no
[Gm]But no sooner had Dan hidden from sight
A big [Abm]fat frog ju[Abdim]mped out of t[E]he night
Dan said, [Bb]watch this, it's not a bug
He could ru[A]in my web with a single tug
But the [Gm]frog saw Dan,
with a slip of his tongue,
Dan [A]rolled [D]into the frog's mouth
[F]an d the [Bb]frog said YUM!
[A][F][D][C][D]
[C][D]
From inside the frog's mouth
he could hear Dan cry.
Help me somebody!
I'm [C]too young to [D]die!
I've got a wife and [C]32 kids!
[D]I've got a rare spider disease.
[C]I mig[D]ht be contagious.
But just when Dan had [C]given up hope,
the [D]frog tried to swallow him,
began to choke him with a cough
and an awful [C]gagging sound.
[D]Out came Dan, he fell to the [Gm]ground.
[D]And you[C] know what tha[D]t frog did next?
[C]He [F]shook his head, said, [Eb]I don't kno[F]w.[Gm]
I [F]can't eat that, oh [Eb]no, oh [F]no.[Gm]
I [F]guess I'll have to let you [Gm]go.[F][Eb][F]
[E]I i[Eb]t was[D] m[C]y en[D]d,
[C]but [D]now I can see [C]you
and I can be [D]friend[C]s.
So [D]why don't we go [C]together
and get something [D]good to [C]eat?
You know, wa[D]termelon
rinds or [C]breadcrumbs,
no, [D]that would be a treat!

[Verse 2]
[D]Hey, you're waiting for me!
