Spider Jiving Lyrics By Andy Fairweather Low

    there’s a dead man’s hand floating in the sky
    big nose people passing by
    crusin’ around on a mountain of air
    crusin’ around till they can land somewhere

    won’t someone take away these blues
    it’s a shame but when i lose i lose
    i can’t survive too much spider jive
    i’m just about hanging on

    oh lord don’t make a poor boy run
    it ain’t easy living under a gun
    insanity’s keeping me company
    insanity’s on the loose
    yes insanity’s on the loose

    there’s an angel of madness and she’s bringing me down
    she won’t rest until i’m in the ground
    i’ll keep sarching everywher i go
    find the answers that no one knows

    won’t someone take away these blues
    it’s a shame but when i lose i lose
    i can’t survive too much spider jive
    i’m just about hanging on

    oh lord don’t make a poor boy run
    it ain’t easy living under a gun
    insanity’s keeping me company
    insanity’s on the loose
    yes insanity’s on the loose

    you can’t paint pictures on a scarecrow’s hat
    ’cause everybody’s nobody and that’s a fact
    rich man poor man no one is safe
    try all you want but you can’t escape

    won’t someone take away these blues
    it’s a shame but when i lose i lose
    i can’t survive too much spider jive
    i’m just about hanging on

    oh lord don’t make a poor boy run
    it ain’t easy living under a gun
    insanity’s keeping me company
    insanity’s on the loose
    yes insanity’s on the loose
