Wesley Willis - I Whipped Spiderman's arse

Spider-Man thought he was bad
He was screwin' my date up
He was botherin' my girlfriend
He tried to cut her out of seventy dollars

I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse

Spider-Man messed with my girlfriend
Spider-Man wrapped his arms around her with my bedroom door closed
Suddenly, I opened the bedroom door on Spider-Man's sneaky arse
I caught him kissing my girlfriend and beat him to a pulp with a rubber hose

I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse

Spider-Man beat the hell out of me
He whirled me and knocked me to the floor
I tore out his world and threw him against the radiator
Spider-Man was being such a stupid jerk

I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse
I whipped Spider-Man's arse

Rock over London
Rock on Chicago
Napa, it's the parts store

Please edit this. Cats in the Cradle is not Father and Son, nor is it written by Cat Stevens. Do not propagate this falsity.

Any good songs that tell a story?
I have to do a lip sync project in theater. I have to pick a song that tells a story. Really desperate at this point.
