9:28 – THE STORY OF SPIDERWEBS

• Inspired by the episode “Our Mrs Reynolds” from the TV show Firefly
• Talked about it in episode #6 of In the Verse.
• Mal: Now, think real hard. You've been birddoggin' this township a while now. They wouldn't mind a corpse of you. Now, you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear, by my pretty floral bonnet, I will end you.

Spiderwebs Lyrics

Bad men are bird dogging our town
Dogging our town, Bird dogging our town
Bad men are bird dogging our town
We’ll lay a trap for them.

We’re gonna spin a spiderweb
Spiderweb, Spiderweb
We’re gonna spin a spiderweb
That’s how we will catch them.

I’ll wear a soft cotton dress
A soft cotton dress, soft cotton dress
I’ll wear a soft cotton dress
With a pretty floral bonnet on top

Will shoot them down in the spider web
Spiderweb, spiderweb
Will shoot them down in the spider web
And celebrate our win

A pretty little girl has lured me in
Lured me in, lured me in
A pretty little girl has lured me in
Declared her love for me

She caught my heart in a spiderweb
Spiderweb , Spiderweb
She caught my heart in a spiderweb
Now how will this all end

She’s leading me to the end of the line
End of the line, end of the line
She’s leading me to the end of the line
We'll put things right again

I’ll break free from her spiderweb
Spiderweb, spiderweb
I’ll break free from her spiderweb
And never kiss a girl again

Come here little lady, May I meet you
I meet you, I meet you
Come here little lady may I meet you
Guess it begins again

It’s all a game of spiderwebs
Spiderwebs, spiderwebs
It’s all a game of spiderwebs
And everybody falls in

15:21 – Marc Gunn “Spiderwebs” from Come Adventure With Me
