The Spider - Flanders & Swann[00:00:00]

I have fought a Grizzly Bear [00:00:04]

Tracked a Cobra to its lair [00:00:07]

Killed a Crocodile who dared to cross my path [00:00:09]

But the thing I really dread[00:00:13]

When I've just got out of bed[00:00:15]

Is to find that there's a Spider in the bath [00:00:18]

I've no fear of Wasps or Bees [00:00:24]

Mosquitoes only tease [00:00:26]

I rather like a Cricket on the hearth [00:00:29]

But my blood runs cold to meet[00:00:32]

In pyjamas and bare feet [00:00:35]

With a great big hairy spider in the bath [00:00:38]

I have faced a charging Bull in Barcelona [00:00:42]

I have dragged a mountain Lioness from her cubs [00:00:46]

I've restored a mad Gorilla to it's owner [00:00:49]

But I don't dare face that tub [00:00:53]

What a frightful looking beast -[00:00:58]

Half an inch across at least -[00:01:00]

It would frighten even Superman or Garth [00:01:02]

There's contempt it can't disguise [00:01:06]

In the little beady eyes [00:01:09]

Of the Spider sitting glowering in the bath [00:01:11]

It ignores my every lunge[00:01:22]

With the backbrush and the sponge;[00:01:24]

I have bombed it with 'A present from Penarth' [00:01:26]

It just rolls into a ball [00:01:30]

Doesn't seem to mind at all [00:01:32]

And simply goes on squatting in the bath [00:01:35]

For hours we have been locked in endless struggle [00:01:39]

I have lured it to the deep end by the drain [00:01:42]

At last I think I've washed it down the plughole [00:01:46]

Here it comes a-crawling up the chain [00:01:50]

Now it's time for me to shave [00:01:54]

Though my nerves will not behave [00:01:56]

And there's bound to be a fearful aftermath [00:01:58]

So before I cut my throat [00:02:02]

I shall leave this final note;[00:02:04]

Driven to it - by the Spider in the bath[00:02:07]
