Little Yellow Spider by Devendra Banhart
Little Yellow Spider lyrics
Little yellow spider laughing at the snow
Well, maybe that spider knows something that I don't know
'Cuz I'm goddamn cold
Little white monkey staring at the sand
Well, maybe that monkey figured out something I couldn't understand
Who knows
Well, I came upon a dancing crab and I stopped to watch it shake
I said, "Dance for me just one more time before ya hibernate
And ya come out a crab cake"
And hey there little snapping turtle, snapping at a shell
Oh, there's mysteries inside I know
But what they are I just can't tell for sure
And hey there little baby crow, you're looking kind of mean
I think I oughta split before ya start letting off your spleen
For sure
And hey there little sexy pig, you mated with a man
And now you've got a little kid
With hooves instead of hands
And oh all of the animals, all of the animals
And hey there little mockingbird, they sing about you in songs
Oh, where ya been? Have ya broke a wing?
I haven't heard ya in so long
And hey there little albatross, swimming in the air
Aw, come on you know I can't fly and I
Think we really oughta play fair
And hey there mister happy squid, you move so psychedelically
You hypnotize with your magic dance all the animals in the sea
For sure
And oh all of the animals, all the animals
And hey there Mr. Morning Sun, what kind of creature are you
I can't stare but I know you're there
Goddamn, how I wish I knew
And hey there Mrs. Lovely Moon, you're lonely and you're blue
It's kind of strange the way you change
But then again we all do, too
