Meat Puppets

The Spider And The Spaceship

by Meat Puppets
Meat Puppets

Biography:

Meat Puppets is an American rock band formed in January 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. The group's original lineup was Curt Kirkwood (guitar/vocals), his brother Cris Kirkwood (bass guitar), and Derrick Bostrom (drums). The Kirkwood brothers met Bostrom while attending Brophy Prep High School in Phoenix. The three then moved to Tempe, Arizona (a Phoenix suburb and home to Arizona State University) where the Kirkwood brothers purchased two adjacent homes, one of which had a shed in the back where they regularly practiced.

A

A D A
I don't think too clearly on matters sincerely
D A E
And matters sincerely seem cloudy at best
A D A
There's debate about the mascot for a building in the neighborhood
D A E A
And linoleum chickens are growing out west

E D A
Which one is larger, the spider or the spaceship?
E D E
It's the question of the hour, if you know what I mean
E D A
Which one is more powerful, the spider or the astronaut?
D A F A
In the 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 starting to seem
That beautiful peanuts are there to be eaten
May 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 is more powerful, the spider or the astronaut?
In the score left unsettled, it remains to be seen

SOLO

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 fuckers
The car drinks petroleum, Mr. S runs on beans

Which one is larger, the spider or the spaceship?
It's the question of the hour, if you know what I mean
Which one is more powerful, the spider or the astronaut?
In the score left unsettled, it remains to be seen

And which one is larger, the spider or the spaceship?
It's the question of the hour, if you know what I mean
Which one is more powerful, the spider or the astronaut?
In the score left unsettled, it remains to be seen
