the Widow & the Wasp

lyrics

THE WIDOW & THE WASP

it all started with a peck on the cheek
and then she rendered me unable to speak
the blacker the widow the thicker the weave of the web
i’m talkin so literal, best believe what i said
she spread me out on her bed
she said she wanted me dead
but for an appetizer, scraped the skin off my head!

yeah, you best believe I was a bad bumble bee
no rumble in the jungle could humble or tumble me
oh, but it’s a tangled web we weave,
when we seek to deceive
woe is me, the widow put me to sleep (that’s deep)

first thing I caught was the tip of my feet
the more I fought, the more it stuck to me
the harder the struggle the tighter the rap around me
for her the hotter the battle the sweeter the victory
none the less, i was impressed how she kept a cool head
and sunk a poison tooth into the back of my neck!

yeah, you best believe…

my pulse slowed and i wiggled my toes
she wrapped my body up like a burrito (damb bro!)
the slower she moved the sooner i wanted to die
wished I was a fly so i could close all those eyes

but before she claimed her prize, i looked to the side
saw a nature channel camera man catch my demise!

yeah, you best believe…
