From the musical “Kiss of the Spiderwoman”
Sooner or later you’re certain to meet
In the bedroom, the parlour or even the street
There’s no place on earth you’re likely to miss
Her kiss…
Sooner or later in sunlight or gloom
When the red candles flicker she’ll walk in the room
And the curtains will shake and the fire will hiss
Here comes her kiss…
And the moon grows dimmer
At the tide’s low ebb
And her black beads shimmer
And you’re aching to move
But you’re caught in the web
Of the Spiderwoman
In her velvet cape
You can scream…
But you cannot escape
Sooner or later your love will arrive
And she touches your heart
You’re alert and alive
But there’s only one pin that can puncture such bliss
Her kiss…
Sooner or later you bathe in success
And your minions salute - they say nothing but yes
But your power is empty
It fades like the mist
Once you’ve been kissed…
And the moon grows dimmer
At the tide’s low ebb
And your breath comes faster
And you’re aching to move
But you’re caught in the web
Of the Spiderwoman
In her velvet cape
You can run…
You can scream…
You can hide…
But you cannot escape!
