The Lyrics

Er... does exactly what it says on the tin. This one is a little more cheesy than I usually do, but what the hey.
I was a student, had brains and I used it to study,
I was a geek, wasn't strong I was weak, they laughed at me,
Then... I... GOT BITTEN!!
Now when you see me I'll probably be on a wall

My, my, my, Man-Spider!
Why, why, why, Man-Spider!
Great... power brings, re-spon-sa-bi-li-ty
So - Man-Spider, fly high and fight crime to save me!

Stuck in a bath I was trapped because the sides were slippy
Take photos for papers, just pray they don't roll one and hit me
My... skin... is hairy
At least I can fetch the remote without crossing the floor

My, my, my, Man-Spider!
Why, why, why, Man-Spider!
So before more bad guys show up at my door
Screw being a spider, I just cant be arsed anymore

[insert trumpet solo here]

My... skin... is hairy
At least I can fetch the remote without crossing the floor

My, my, my, Man-Spider!
Why, why, why, Man-Spider!
Fame... and more... Kirsten Dunst is now mi amor
So being Man-Spider may not be as bad as I thought...
So being Man-Spider may not be as bad as I thought
You think they'll use it in the next film?

Kind of fun - I liked the bath and newspaper lines especially. Misses the original's rhyme scheme in places, but other than that it's excellent.
