Limbo Under the Spider Web

Downloads

Use your imagination in decorating your room for this song! You can simply run a piece of string or yarn and have children limbo under it, or string several “webs” from cottony Halloween webbing around the room. If you really want to limbo, support a web or piece of yarn between two people, and have them lower it a little more each time the children pass under. Younger children can just walk under, and older children can tip their heads back in limbo fashion!

Lyrics

A spider builds a silver web,

He starts with a single string

From the silk he makes himself,

It's stronger than most anything

CHORUS:

Come on limbo under the spider's web

You can limbo along with me

Go under but do not touch the silken thread

Come on and limbo along with me

One day the itsy bitsy spider

Went up the water spout

Though she fell when the rain came down

She went up went the sun came out

(chorus)

Said the spider to the fly,

Won't you come and visit me

But the fly said no, you're looking for dinner

And that would be me!
