Wilco - Spiders (kidsmoke)

Spiders
Wilco

Spiders are singing in the salty breeze
Spiders are filling out tax returns
Spinning out webs of deductions and melodies
On a private beach in Michigan

Why do they miss when their kisses should
Fly like winging birds fighting for the keys
Why can't they wish their kisses good

On a private beach in Michigan
This recent rash of kidsmoke
All these telescopic poems
It's good to be alone

Why can't they say what they want
Why can't they just say what they mean
Come clean, listen and talk
Hello private callers, IDs blocked

The future has a valley and a shortcut around
Who will wear the crown of drowning award
The sun will rise, we'll climb into cars
Hold a private light on a Michigan shore
You fool me with a kiss of kidsmoke

From a microscopic home
It's good to be alone
I'll be in my bed
That raises from the dead
You can be the stone

And carries us all home
There's no blood on my hands
I just do as I am told
