Editors Lullaby (The Cure Cover) Lyrics

On candystripe legs the spiderman comes,
softly through the shadow of the evening sun
Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead,
looking for the victim shivering in bed

Searching out fear in the gathering gloom
and suddenly! a movement in the corner of the room
And there is nothing I can do,
when I realise with fright
That the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight!

Quietly he laughs and shaking his head,
creeps closer now, closer to the foot of the bed
And softer than shadow and quicker than flies,
his arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes

"Be still, be calm, be quiet now my precious boy,
don't struggle like that or I will only love you more
For it's much too late to get away
or turn on the light,
the spiderman is having you for dinner tonight"

And I feel like I'm being eaten
by a thousand million shivering furry.. holes
And I know that in the morning
I will wake up in the shivering cold...
And the spiderman is always hungry...
