Kiss of the Spider Woman
Spider Woman
Sooner or later
You're certain to meet
In the bedroom, the parlor or even the street
There's no place on earth
You're likely to miss
Her kiss
Sooner or later
In sunlight or gloom
When the red candles flicker
She'll walk in the room
And the curtains will shake and the fire will hiss
Here comes her kiss
And the moon grows dimmer
At the tide's low ebb
And her black beads shimmer
And you're aching to move
But you're caught in the web
Of the Spider Woman
In her velvet cape
You can scream
But you cannot escape
Sooner or later your love will arrive
And she touches your heart
You're alert and alive
But there's only one pin
That can puncture such bliss
Her kiss
Sooner or later you bathe in success
And your minions salute
They say nothing but "YES"
But your power is empty
It fades like the mist
Once you've been kissed
And the moon grows dimmer
At the tide's low ebb
And your breath comes faster
And you're aching to move
But you're caught in the web
Of the Spider Woman
In her velvet cape
You can run
You can scream
You can hide
But you cannot escape!
