Song: Lullaby (1989)

Category: 3 (Alternative)
on candystripe legs the spiderman comes
softly through the shadow of the evening sun
stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
looking for the victim shivering in bed
searching out fear in the gathering gloom and
suddenly!
a movement in the corner of the room!
and there is nothing i can do
when i realize with fright
that the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight!
quietly he laughs and shaking his head
creeps closer now
closer to the foot of the bed
and softer than shadow and quicker than flies
his arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
"be still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
don't struggle like that or i will only love you more
for it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
the spiderman is having you for dinner tonight"
and i feel like i'm being eaten
by a thousand million shivering furry holes
and i know that in the morning i will wake up
in the shivering cold
and the spiderman is always hungry...
"Come into my parlour", said the spider to the fly... "I have something...
The object of the contest is to create a build, scene or vig inspired by a song, it's lyrics, etc.
Thanks for looking.

Ooo, creepy! You certainly did a fantastic job creating a gloomy atmosphere, the blay works wonders! |

Quoting Mr. Xenomurphy
This is so burtonesque that I simply love it. The combination of dark and light bley is also very clever.
Thanks man, I was channeling Beetlejuice i think! The bley thing was an experiment as my lighting and photography are not the best so i wanted to introduce more gloom in there without just building in black - happy it seems to have worked.
And thanks everyone for the kind words. For the record, this won the category I entered it in :) |

This is really cool. The Spiderman is pretty creepy, but the only true thing to fear is the Slenderman... <.< >.> |

Thanks for the comments folks. Tyler and Yuri, I sing brilliantly in the shower or the car but i'm not going to be committing crimes against music on the internet for all to see! Check out the original song or the album it's from (Disintegration) as both are faves of mine. Melodic alternative goth pop. |
