I was getting dressed late one night
  along came a spider and I got a fright
  oh I could not squash it flat
  No matter how I tried,
  And when it looked me in the eye
  I ran away to hide...
    I put on me Doctor Martin shoes
  A battle with the spider that I wasn't gonna loose
  A kick from the left a kick from the right
  I was on the floor but I was alright
  It was gonna be a long long night
    [Chorus:]
  Spiders in the dressing room
  Spiders everywhere
  Spider in the dressing room beware
  [repeat twice]
    Things were getting hot and I had to take a chance
  The spider got impatient
  Started crawling up me pants
  I shook it off me legthump it hit the ground
  Everything was silent so I didn't make a sound
  I crossed the room as happy as can be
  I had killed the spider now it couldn't bother me
  But with me arm on the light
  He was there ready for a fight
  It was gonna be a long long night.
    [Chorus]
    It was getting late and the spider wasn't dead
  An audience had gathered round
  AndI was going red
  I put a jam jar on the floor
  the spider crawled inside it
  I screwed the lid back on the top
  And threw the jar outside
  At a party late that night
  Everything was bright and gay
  We played all our pop records and danced the night away,
  Early in the morning came a knocking at the door
  I opened it slowly guess what I saw
  It was gonna be a long long night...
    [Chorus]
