Up until one century ago there lived [00:00:12]
In the Zi Duang provence of eastern country [00:00:15]
A glass-like spider [00:00:19]
Having devoured its prey it would drape the skeletons over its web in weeks creating a macabre shrine of remains [00:00:22]
Its web was also unique in that it had many layers like floors in a buuilding [00:00:32]
At the top of this palace-like place assembled with almost apparent care were tiny shining objects glass beads dew-drops [00:00:45]
One could almost call it an altar [00:00:58]
When the breeze blew thru this construction [00:01:01]
It produced sounds of wailing crying [00:01:04]
Tiny wails tiny cries [00:01:08]
The baby spiders would get scared and search frantically for their mother [00:01:19]
But the Glass Spider would have long gone having known that the babies would survive somehow on their own [00:01:23]
Oh-The Glass Spider had blue eyes almost like-a human's [00:01:30]
They shed tears at the wintered turn of the centuries [00:01:35]
Don't you hear this wasted cry Life is over you[00:01:44]
(Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone)[00:01:55]
But you've seen who's in heaven Is there anyone in hell[00:01:58]
(Mummy come back 'cause it's dark now)[00:02:08]
Take care take care [00:02:23]
(Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone)[00:02:29]
Somewhere she glows divine Somewhere she wakes alone [00:02:34]
But you you've promise in your lovin' eye God it's dark now [00:02:44]
Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah[00:02:52]
Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah[00:02:53]
Gone Gone the water's all gone[00:02:59]
Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone[00:03:02]
Stay low on the ground my fire can drive you savage and afraid[00:03:09]
Spitting at the dawn come along before the animals awake[00:03:16]
Run moving all night rivers to the left [00:03:26]
If your mother don't love you then the riverbed might[00:03:29]
Gone gone the water's all gone[00:03:33]
Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone[00:03:36]
Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah[00:03:39]
Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah[00:03:41]
Gone gone the water's all gone[00:03:47]
Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone[00:03:49]
Gone gone the water's all gone[00:03:53]
Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone[00:03:56]
Gone gone the water's all gone[00:04:00]
Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone[00:04:03]
