Jerry Cantrell - Spiderbite lyrics

Written by Jerry Cantrell

Caine

Caine

What was your name? Glad to meet ya

Never been to your place, but I know it

Twitching embrace, show me the spider

Try to disappear, back crack in the sofa

Caine

Caine

Caine

Slow poison working inside

Descending in a shadow, cocoon me then bite

Caine spider give to me pain

Got a caterpillar body and a butterfly brain

Caine

Caine

What day is today? Don't I know you?

19 and bold, bitten in Houston

Out to the car, picked up a spider

Anesthetize your face, loser beside ya

Repeat chorus "Slow poison working inside..."

Spun monkeys on the railroad track

Take me to the caine field

I walk along, pick my spiderbite

My old man wonders where I'm at

I'm still a child, guess I keep trying to pay him back

Arrogance stains, threading your silk tomb

Steady she drain, spider digest you

Repeat chorus
