There was a redback on the toilet seat, <br />When I was there last night. <br />I didn't see him in the dark, <br />But boy I felt his bite. <br />I jumped up high into the air, <br />And when I hit the ground. <br />That crafty redback spider, <br />Wasn't nowhere to be found. <br /> <br />I rushed into the mrs, <br />Told her just where I'd been bit. <br />And she grabbed my cutthroat razor, <br />And I nearly took a fit. <br />I said 'Forget what's on your mind, <br />And call a doctor please. <br />For I've got a feeling that your cure, <br />Is worse than the disease.' <br /> <br />There was a redback on the toilet seat, <br />When I was there last night. <br />I didn't see him in the dark, <br />But boy I felt his bite. <br />And now I'm here in hospital, <br />A sad and sorry plight. <br />And I curse the redback spider, <br />On the toilet seat last night. <br /> <br />I can't lie down, I cant' sit up I don't know what to do. <br />The nurses think it's funny but that's not my point of view. <br />I tell you it's embarrasing and that's to say the least, <br />For I'm too sick to eat a bite, <br />While the spider had a feast. <br /> <br />And when I get back home again, I'll tell you what I'll do. <br />I'll make that Redback suffer for the pain I'm going through. <br />I've had so many needles, I'm looking like a siv. <br />I promise you that redback hasn't very long to live. <br /> <br />There was a redback on the toilet seat, <br />When I was there last night. <br />I didn't see him in the dark, <br />But boy I felt his bite. <br />And now I'm here in hospital, <br />A sad and sorry plight. <br />And I curse the redback spider, <br />On the toilet seat last night.<br /><br />Satan's Sibling<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/redback-on-the-toilet-seat-lyrics-famed-aussie-poem/
