Who, The - Boris The Spider Lyrics

Lennon Claypool Delirium

One of my unusual favorites in the day.

The best who song.

I wonder if they were stoned when they wrote this....

Probably

Why do so many people here call this Death Metal vocals? That' SO NOT the case!

I'm hear because I heard this on Dr Demento around 1980 before I was a teen & I'm gonna finally sing it at kereokee tonight.

Now he leads the UK

I heard this today on the radio 🙂

Is this a love song? The Beatles were still singing I want to hold your hand

Really! Boris is fukin awesome. Boris the spider rocks vintage stuff. If you don't like go fuk off...lol..says Boris my friend

Dr claw from inspector gadget did the vocals on this one.

At first this creeped me out. I came here because there's this virtual band I like and my favorite band member said she used to play her guitar along with the song so I decided to listen to it and like I said at first I was kinda creeped out but then I started liking it

Every time I'm smashing a spider in my house I am singing this song.

This song inspired a character for my Spider story.

RIP Boris. You may have been embedded in the ground, but your legend will live on forever.

This song was in my studientbook

Kolm w a k

Boris, the fuckin' prick and prime minister

i heard this playing at Walmart, Halloween season!, i had to shazam it and listen to it again, instant Like!

After I drink my cereal milk

is Slenderman available?  whats the matter caa you cant handle it, or are you beat already, or need help....this is a precise instrument situation, with more heat needed, so I can heat you are a pro with the scalpel , this I get he had concocted it I think. we agree we heard it.   and we go now thank you for the confidence.  and I hear you yell yes in praise I agree, Arrianne, Boris is here

I named a massive spider i found in my house Boris

Every time I see a spider his name is automatically Boris

Whenever I listen to the last verse, I like to think of Lyin' Boris Johnson.

Boris / supreme court 😜

News story today about Lady Hale wearing a large spider brooch yesterday - perhaps as a reference to this song.

In 76 I was 9
My older brothers of course play the good tunes but I'm always upset when he dies.
I find this when I see a spider and sing to it

my dad would play this for me when i was like 6

PERFECT ACCOMPLYAMENT FOR NICKELSON DIALOGUE ON THE GOLF COARSE AS HE COMPARES THE INSTANCES OF LUCK AND IRONIC TIMING AND ODD CIRCUMSTANCE TO THAT OFF A SPIDER COMING DOWN OUT OF THE GREAT BIG BLUE SKY TO REAR ITS UGLY LITTLE HEAD AND SPIN ITS THREAD OF UNLIKELY OUTCOMES INTO A WEB OF TRANSPARENT CONCLUSION.

For Halloween, what would be scarier above the eight glowing eyes of a giant spider - an ultra-bleached vertical fright wig, or a flatter, smoother, slightly orange muskrat pelt?

its like metal meets early oingo boingo.... sorta

Absolutely classic! Love to play this in the car and see people react to it.

Loved this song from birth...Was J. Entwhistle seeing into the future?? .could it possibily refer to the fate of UK's current PM???????

I always put this song in my Halloween mixtape every year.

Pure quality content 👌

Looks like we "got fooled again".

And now . . . Mayor Pete.

First song I learned to play on the bass.

congrats to the new PM Boris Johnson

He’s now the Prime Minister of the UK

new anthem for the Brits...

New British PM!

Tää on vaan niin hieno! Suosikki jo alusta alkaen!

Boris "Spider" Johnson

Boris Johnson is the Prime minister.

The line "Maybe he is as scared as me" made pity all the innocent spiders i the world who were killed by humans.

Now Boris the Spider is going to lead the Tory Party!

I read an old interview with Hendrix from around 1968, 69 and he said this was his favorite Who song. Unfortunately Hendrix didn't live to hear the great 70s Who records like Whos next, Quadrophenia and others maybe even Tommy which I think came out in 70?

BORRIS THE SPIDER you can't go wrong with the Who, one of the most incredible rock and rroll bands I have ever heard, the legacy of this band will never die

I think that this song has all the makings for a great, relevant Halloween song. I don't think that I have heard it playing on Halloween day, for some reason, though.

Always felt bad about Boris, as well as all spiders. Look at it from their point of view, they live in a world of giant moving mountains (us) that try to kill them on sight. Poor little guys.🕷😟😦😢

And then The Who come along and make a song about it 🤣

good theme song for boris johnson

In my family we love this song so guess what our nickname is for Boris Johnson

There he is wrapped in a ball. Doesn't seem to move at all. Perhaps he's dead now, I'll make sure. Pick this book up off the floor.

Something tells me this is not a love song, but I can't be quite sure...

Boris the Spider is very likely to be our next Prime Minister oh what a tangled web we weave

Deeper voice than any metal singer ever. Lol.

Not only the vocals, but also the dark theme and atmosphere, and the heavy riffs really sound like a proto-death metal song.

Rip Varys the Spider he came to an ashy end .

I’m listening to this cause a spider is trying to eat my soap rn and I’m to afraid to kill its punk ass

Epic Who and you never hear this on a classic rock station and wtf? & BTW a big reason why I always boycott those stations.

If you want more death growls, listen to The Who Summertime Blues from the album Live at Leeds.

hmm... this sure sounds like profanatica. probably the bass prominence and the growled vocals. pure satanic fucking bestial might. the 2r5q36

2019... first time hearing about it. fucking amazing. saw things about it on a video, had to see for myself.... good god. its beautiful

It's cool to hear the first death growls ever recorded but this song sucks tbh

Because of this song I call every spider boris, out of respect.

Yeah just saying, 2019,my dad showed me this and now I listen to this all the time

only john entwistle could make a childish pantomime totally badass

Had this in my head a whole week @ work

Love it!! Sort of sounds like a Frank Zappa type of song......

Now I know what to name my tarantula. Lol 😂

They on meth

Fun fact: This song was written in less than ten minutes. The Who needed one more song so the album would be at its contractual length.

It is such a GREAT SONG... I REALLY RELATE TO THE SENTIMENT EXPRESSED HEAR!!!

My dad listened to this when I was like 5 I remember it now 😂

Who's here because the who rock and death metal is for basement dwellers?

This by far thr spookiest shit ever heard even for a metalhead

He should of named the spider "Webster" or that he's a college student-spider who's in college for web design

wonderful. Thanks a bunch. 💓

is Boris the Spider actually Boris Johnson?

this should be called VARYS the spider...

Arachnophobia anyone?

I love this song :D

OWLS???

DUDE....

The artist that drew this psychedelic thing is good but does he understand the logic of guitars because im pretty sure bass and guitars dont normally have 10 strings

Well that sounds like Lemmys voice :)

every time I try to do the growl and almost rip my larynx in half doing do

Bill Steer on vocals

Sounds like he’s talking into a fan when he does the growl

Maurice the spider

My 11yro turned me on to this song

This was one of my absolute favorite bedtime tunes my mother would play.

To be honest, that doesn't sound like a growl, at all.
It sounds like when you have to spit and your throat id filled with the green one xD

I’ve spent years looking for this song, I listened to it on roadtrips as a kid and it gives me extreme nostalgia, I’m so happy that i found it :)))

I'm curious to hear David Draiman & Disturbed cover this.

¿Wtf is Till Lindemann doing there?

alguno aqui por Metal Hero?

My first Tarantula is now named Boris, thanks Chris Gormly.:-))

Great song. I'm suprised there isn't more mention of John E. as a writing force within the band.
