The Spider and the Spaceship - Meat Puppets

I don’t think too clearly on matters sincerely

And matters sincerely seem cloudy at best

There’s debate about the mascot for building in your neighborhood

And linoleum chickens are growing out west

Which one is larger: the spider or the spaceship?

It’s the question of the hour if you know what I mean

Which one’s more powerful: the spider or the astronaut?

In a score left unsettled, it remains to be seen

Let’s ponder this question: why did I eat peanuts?

Though pretty to look at it’s heartening to see

That beautiful peanuts are there to be eaten

They somehow not fit into nature’s great scheme

Which one is larger: the spider or the spaceship?

It’s the question of the hour if you know what I mean

Which one’s more powerful: the spider or the astronaut?

In a score left unsettled, it remains to be seen

Mr. Saturday night is a cowboy in a motorcar

With a head full of answers to criminal schemes

His daddy’s in prison and his friends are all truckers

The car drinks petroleum, Mr. Rest runs on leaves

Which one is larger: the spider or the spaceship?

It’s the question of the hour if you know what I mean

Which one’s more powerful: the spider or the astronaut?

In a score left unsettled, it remains to be seen

Which one is larger: the spider or the spaceship?

It’s the question of the hour if you know what I mean

Which one’s more powerful: the spider or the astronaut?

In a score left unsettled, it remains to be seen
