Texty: Tom Morello. The Fabled City. Lights Are on in Spidertown.
Stand back storm troopers attack
On a bright may-day man
I must be gettin' soft
I dunno, what do you think mister?
Looks like ten fat pigs in a nine pig trough
Die Diediedie,
Diediedie, diediedie, (Hey, Hey!)
Die diediedie,
And the lights are on in Spidertown
Sittin' back of the class
Iron chains, lead weights, taught rope,
holdin' down my will.
I dunno, what do you think mister?
I say we do anything just to take that hill.
Hey!
Die Diediedie,
Diediedie, diediedie, (Hey, Hey!)
Die diediedie,
And the lights are on in Spidertown
The sky is falling,
falling down.
The sky is falling down.
The world stops turning,
turning round.
The world stops turning round,
And the lights are on in Spidertown
Silent Night and the wind crashes right,
Put a wig on the heiress
Rob the bank and pray.
No I dunno, what do you think mister?
Don't do as I do, just do as I say!
Die Diediedie,
Diediedie, diediedie, (Hey, Hey!)
Die diediedie,
And the lights are on in Spidertown
Yeah the lights are on is Spidertown
Hey!
On a bright may-day man
I must be gettin' soft
I dunno, what do you think mister?
Looks like ten fat pigs in a nine pig trough
Die Diediedie,
Diediedie, diediedie, (Hey, Hey!)
Die diediedie,
And the lights are on in Spidertown
Sittin' back of the class

Hey!
Die Diediedie,
Diediedie, diediedie, (Hey, Hey!)
Die diediedie,
