"Spiderbite" lyrics - JERRY CANTRELL

[Intro:]
'Caine
('Caine)
'Caine

What was your name? Damn glad to meet ya
Never been to your place, but I know it
Twitching embrace, show me the spider
Try to disappear, back crack in the sofa

[Refrain:]
'Caine
'Caine
'Caine

[Chorus:]
Slow poison working inside
Descending in shadow, cocoon me, then bite
'Caine spider give to me pain
Got a caterpillar body and a butterfly brain

[Refrain:]
'Caine
Yeah
'Caine ('Caine)

What day is today? Don't I know you?
Nineteen and bold, bitten in Houston
Out to the car, picked up a spider
Anesthetize your face, loser beside ya

[Chorus:]
Slow poison working inside
Descending in shadow, cocoon me, then bite
'Caine spider give to me pain
Got a caterpillar body and a butterfly brain

Slow poison working inside
Descending in shadow, cocoon me, then bite
'Caine spider give to me pain
Got a caterpillar body and a butterfly brain

[Bridge:]
Spun monkeys on the railroad track
Take me to the 'caine field
I... walk along, pick my spiderbite

I... My old man wonders where I'm at
I'm... still a child
Guess I keep trying to pay him back

[Instrumental interlude]

Arrogance stains, threading your silk tomb
Steady she drain, spider digest you

[Chorus:]
Slow poison working inside
Descending in shadow, cocoon me, then bite
'Caine spider give to me pain
Got a caterpillar body and a butterfly brain

Slow poison working inside
Descending in shadow, cocoon me, then bite
'Caine spider give to me pain
Got a caterpillar body and a butterfly brain

[Outro:]
Slow poison working inside
Descending in shadow, cocoon me, then bite
'Caine spider give to me pain
Got a caterpillar body and a butterfly brain

Slow poison working inside
Descending in shadow, cocoon me, then bite
'Caine spider give to me pain
Got a caterpillar body and a butterfly brain
