[Intro] (spoken → shout)
The war is over!
…we lost.
Wait, are you SERIOUS ????
ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR—RUN!

[Verse 1]
Yesterday they marched in lines, banging on a tin-can drum,
today they own the traffic lights and half the corner pub.
Tiny little flags on straws, webbing on the square,
one is riding on a pigeon like he paid to put it there.
Mayor tried to make a speech, got tangled in a sign,
postman dropped the letters when he saw eight legs in line.
Hey! (hey!)
Look! (look!)
They’ve got the bakery surrounded!

[Pre-Chorus]
Shhh—hear the ska guitar snap,
brass goes “bah!” from a rooftop trap.
If you blink, they’ve changed the rules—
the spiders run this town, you fools!

[Chorus]
Spiders have taken the town—HEY!
Webs on the buses and the churchyard gate!
Spiders have taken the town—HEY!
Tiny little kings and they don’t wait!
Raise that thread, beat that pan,
they’ve got a battle plan!
Spiders have taken the town—HEY!
And they’re charging us rent anyway!

[Verse 2]
They turned the bank into a nest, the school into a fort,
there’s a tarantula tax on every packet, plate, and fork.
One little brute in aviators runs security at the bar,
another guards the fish shop like a hairy movie star.
The butcher tried to fight them off with one heroic broom,
now he’s hiding in the freezer yelling, “Tell my wife I’m doomed!”
Uh-oh… (uh-oh…)
They’ve got the town hall bell.

[Pre-Chorus]
Skank it left, skank it right,
curfew starts at six tonight.
If you hear a tiny “hiss,”
that means the spiders made a list.

[Bridge] (half-time → scream)
General Spinner made a throne
out of ketchup packs and chicken bones.
He said, “This town is ours by right!”
Then ten small spiders shouted, “FIGHT!”
(SCREAM) AAAAAAH!

[Breakdown]
Who took the town? (Spiders!)
Who runs the square? (Spiders!)
Who owns my shed? (Spiders!)
WHY ARE THEY THERE?! (SPIDERS!)

[Ska Guitar / Brass Solo]

[Final Chorus]
Spiders have taken the town—HEY!
Webs on the buses and the churchyard gate!
Spiders have taken the town—HEY!
Tiny little kings and they don’t wait!
Raise that thread, beat that pan,
they’ve got a battle plan!
Spiders have taken the town—HEY!
And they’re charging us rent anyway!

[Outro] (spoken)
Right…
who let them have the mayor’s office?
meeee, meee
why not, ha-hahahaha !!!
