Spider Suite by The Duke of Uke and His Novelty Orchestra Lyrics
[Lyrics to "Ambrosia"]
[Verse 1]
Your web is strung and I'll take the bait
Your trap is sprung now, so don't you hesitate
Do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
You pierce my flesh, your fangs seep deep
Now I'm dissolving into a sweet and dreamless sleep
Do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
[Verse 2]
My fate was sealed when I saw your eyes
Now I'm just dancing towards my own demise
Do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
Although it hurts, I can't avoid
Longing to go where I know I'll be destroyed
Do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
[Outro]
Oh, do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
[Lyrics to "The Web"]
[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
The falling stars you wished upon are cinders now and now they're gone
Their residue festoons my fetid field
Revealing husks of lovers past, their shells are all that ever last
I've taken everything that they've concealed
[Verse 2]
Whoever told you life was fair?
Look around you everywhere, the cruelty of Nature is displayed
Why the scorn? Why the surprise?
Everythin' that's born must die and it isn't I who made the world that way
[Verse 3]
What wicked little twist of fate placed you here upon my plate?
Here, where no one hears your cries?
Where was your God to steer you through?
Perhaps your God's forsaken you?
Otherwise, why lead you here to die?
[Instrumental]
[Lyrics to "Melt Away"]
[Chorus]
I know the way how, I'll melt away now
I know the way
I'm feeling bliss now, dissolved to mist, how strangely I go away
Now I finally know
[Bridge]
It's merely moments now
Moments now until your feeble flesh bends to my will
And it will, so rest your weary head
There'll be no pain, no pain at all
As everything you are dissolves
Your fate resolved upon my silky threads
(Now I finally know)
[Chorus]
I know the way how, I'll melt away now
I know the way
I'm feeling bliss now, dissolved to mist, how strangely I go away
Now I finally know
I know the way how, I'll melt away now
I know the way
I'm feeling bliss now, dissolved to mist, how strangely I go away
Now I finally know
[Verse 1]
Your web is strung and I'll take the bait
Your trap is sprung now, so don't you hesitate
Do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
You pierce my flesh, your fangs seep deep
Now I'm dissolving into a sweet and dreamless sleep
Do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
[Verse 2]
My fate was sealed when I saw your eyes
Now I'm just dancing towards my own demise
Do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
Although it hurts, I can't avoid
Longing to go where I know I'll be destroyed
Do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
[Outro]
Oh, do what you'd like and I'll go willingly
Because your venom is ambrosia to me
