The Biting Spider (La Araña Picúa)
Kid's song. The original is in Spanish, translated (rather loosely) into English by yours truly and recorded with a Casio CTK-496 supplying the background music. Changed chords with just one finger.
Hi, I'm "One Wiener and Whine". But I don't actually drink wine.
Story behind the song
This is about as basic a recording as you can possibly get...one voice, one Casio generating chords with one finger pressing the keys...one mike, dumped into Audacity without so much as a second track or any effects or filtering. Is the Casio-generated background a "sample"? If it isn't a public domain kind of sound, what good is it?
Lyrics
I saw a hairy spider, I saw a hairy spider
in a corner of my house
with a tail and four pairs of feetsies, with a tail and four pairs of feetsies,
It looked just like a little crab.
The spider is going to bite you so catch it quick from behind
The spider is going to bite you. Stamp down with your foot and grind.
The spider bit our pal Gus when he dared to touch its tail.
Brave like a drunk, it jumped at Sissy and made her wail.
This very smart little spider, this very smart little spider
is a pain in the butt to me
I saw it climbup the wall, I saw it climb up the wall
making faces at everybody.
I saw a hairy spider, I saw a hairy spider
in a corner of my house
with a tail and four pairs of feetsies, with a tail and four pairs of feetsies,
It looked just like a little crab.
