Sammy the Spider

[Verse 1]

Sammy the spider was on a mission

To move from the bathroom to the kitchen

He gathered his things and put 'em in a bag

Said goodbye to his mom and dad

His 47 siblings begged "to stay here instead"

But he went ahead and slid down his spider web

Like a gunslinger in the old wild west

He clinched his teeth

And squinted his eyes

And dared the world to put him to the test

[Chorus]

Sammy the spider

Sure was a tiger

He pulled his knee socks up higher

All eight of them

He was on a mission

From the bathroom to the kitchen

He was a real fighter

Sammy the spider

[Verse 2]

The hallway opened up like the great unknown that day

A vast expanse in which many a spider lost his way

His nerves were jumpy as he cleared the hall

He turned the corner, and that's when he saw

A shadow cast a menacing shape

It looked like a monster complete with a cape

He snuck and he creeped and karate chopped with his hands

Just to discover

It was nothing other

Than a dust ball back lit by a lamp

[Chorus]

Sammy the spider

Sure was a tiger

He pulled his knee socks up higher

All eight of them

He was on an expedition

An impossible mission

He was real fighter

That Sammy the spider

[Verse 3]

Tired and thirsty, he began to lose heart

Just a sad spider alone in the dark

He pulled a tattered picture from out of his bag

He could almost hear those glistening counters

And lovely painted cabinets whisper

"Come on Sammy, keep moving ahead..."

So he pulled up his britches and he held his head up high

He focused all four eyes, and kept 'em on the prize

Didn't flinch at shadows, he just passed 'em by

Weary and exhausted

He kept on walkin'

Until he finally arrived

[Chorus]

Sammy the spider

Sure was a tiger

He pulled his knee socks up higher

All eight of them

He completed his mission

He made it to the kitchen

He was a real fighter

That Sammy the spider

[Outro]

Sammy's got an apartment in the sky rise of the kitchen

With children of his own now, his parents come and visit
