On candy stripe 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 realize 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…

With deep appreciation, two of our artists provided renditions of The Cure songs from the groundbreaking Disintegration album that originally appeared on a tribute organized by Renato Malizia for The Blog That Celebrates Itself.
Dexy of Magic Wands teams up with Ariel Pink for an intimate cover of "Lovesong". Blackout Transmission deconstructs "Lullaby" on their cover of the eerie classic. We hope you enjoy! All love and credit to The Cure for being such an inspiration for so many years.
As this the last project that Renato/TBTCI will publish, we want to express our sincere gratitude to him for all the support of Etxe Records & Productions over the years. All the best to him!
