The Flaming Lips
The Spiderbite Song
[Verse 1]
When you got that spiderbite on your hand
I thought we would have to break up the band
To lose your arm would surely upset your brain
The poison then could reach your heart from a vein

[Chorus]
I was glad that it didn't destroy you
How sad that would be
'Cause if it destroyed you
It would destroy me

[Verse 2]
When you had that accident in your car
That whole thing just really seemed too bizarre
Dodging holes and telephone poles through the dash
A million to one that you could survive such a crash

[Chorus]
I was glad that it didn't destroy you
How sad that would be
'Cause if it destroyed you
It would destroy me

[Verse 3]
When you fell in love, it was so sweet
So devoted, completely swept off your feet
Love is the greatest thing a heart can know
But the hole that it leaves in its absence can make you feel so low
[Chorus]
I was glad that it didn't destroy you
How sad that would be
'Cause if it destroyed you
It would destroy me
