LYRICS:
I met an old fat spider,
Spinnin' in his tree.
I said, "Hey! Old fat spider!
I'll bet you can't catch me!
You grown too fat, you lazy lob!
You're just an old tomnoddy!
Hey, Attercop! Hey, Attercop!
You can't catch anybody!"

And then the old fat spider,
He spun the final thread.
I said, "Hey, old fat spider!
It's time you were dead!"
I drew my sword to cut his silk,
To kill the old tomnoddy.
But then I thought, "I'll leave him be.
He can't catch anybody."

I met an old fat spider,
In his spinnin' tree,
His web all old and tattered,
And he could hardly see.
I shooed a fly into his lair,
To feed the old tomnoddy,
'Cause how can you kill a spider,
Who can't catch anybody?
How can you kill a spider,
Who can't catch anybody?

How can you kill a spider,
