Precision Auto – Trapdoor Spiders Lyrics
Artist: Precision Auto
Song: Trapdoor Spiders
Number 16 died with a parasite in her chest
Cut down in a second by some unwelcome guest
Yeah it’s a shame but they reckon
In that neck of the woods, it’s all OH&S
You spend your life spinning webs, but you never get a safety net
Number 16 steered through 43 years with a trapdoor over her head
Just shy of the weather and the apex predators
Keeping tabs on her health, but the sky still falls
And Centrelink calls with more automated debt
You keep four feet in your burrow, and four feet in the precipice
Setting records for simply breathing
As if it’s gonna pay off
More than a life observed and dissected
By pundits and representatives
Keeping everything packed at hand just
In case you gotta get out
No more advice or censure from strangers
Unsolicited uninvited
Number 16 dreamed of the scales tipping over
And the clocks all getting reset
No more probes or drones or signposts
No more threats of a blowfly deficit
But history insists she justify existing
‘Cause the boys all lost their heads
And now the jury’s out on what rights the parasite gets
Number 16 swore, she must’ve missed the memo
When the price of admission was set
Maybe her invite never cleared customs
Maybe her vibe was just too venomous
Maybe they plotted her end on the dark web
Sad little men with their bad vibrations
Maybe they pounced in the daylight hours
Everyday trapdoors everyday spiders
Up ahead I see you waving as if you know a way out
Over the sunburnt wheat belt
No seatbelt, no chance of shaking free ’cause
There’s a whitetail under the dashboard
A redback in the sink, there’s a huntsman hanging on the architrave
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes
Keeping eight eyes
Keeping eight eyes
Now, play!
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes on everything
Keeping eight eyes
Keeping eight eyes
Now, play!
