Spider Of Aberdeen Lyrics - Singles - Fire On Mcginnis

Spider works by firelight, damaged web repaired 

Cut by my own steely knife, random cuts and tears 

A perfect web he will complete, he will lie in wait 

For his victim to cross the line, find out oh so late, oh yeah 

Aberdeen, on eastern coastline, by rivers Don and Dee 

Witness battles lost and won, through the centuries 

Not your scholars, or quarried stone, not your fishing fleet 

Not three castles on ridges high 

Can a secret keep 

At Aberdeen, I am the spider, high up on the hill 

Oh you Comyns, you won't escape me, my brothers you have killed 

Garrison will meet their fate when we speak Bon Accord 

So at war for independence, what can we afford, oh yeah 

Said the spider, now do not cross me, don't cut my web away 

If you do, I'll make it stronger, rebuild it everyday, oh yeah
