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
