The first time I heard this song I was at the Mt. Washington hotel. Giant Gwen Stefani said she'd squoosh me if I didn't buy the CD.
If you’ve never been to North Conway, New Hampshire then you’ve never had the pleasure of buying things without paying sales tax at a relatively high altitude. Well, a long time ago I was there and I heard this song on the radio and my buddy and I actually found a place to stop and bought the CD. I don’t have it anymore cause prolly some stupid girl I dicked over took it but I still like this song. I remember the debate in the car when we heard Gwen Stefani’s voice over whether or not she was hot. Turns out she was.
That said, I don’t know what happened to the rest of No Doubt. I don’t think they were involved in that ridiculous Cheerleading song, were they? Are they still a band? If they did a reunion could they just use Gwen Stefani and any three guys on the planet including at least one obese Japanese fellow and still get away with it? I would say yes. In fact, I think you could put Gwen up there with two brooms and an extension cord wrapped around a bucket and people would say: Hey! It’s No Doubt!
Look around your group of friends. Are you the Gwen Stefani or are you the bucket with the extension cord wrapped around it? Video and Lyrics after the jump.
No Doubt – Spiderwebs
You think that we connect
That the chemistry’s correct
Your words walk right through my ears
Presuming I like what I hear
And now I’m stuck in the
The web you’re spinning
You’ve got me for you prey
(Yeah) Sorry I’m not home right now
I’m walking into spiderwebs
So leave a message
And I’ll call you back
A likely story, but (Yeah) leave a message
And I’ll call you back
You’re intruding on what’s mine
And you’re taking up my time
Don’t have the courage inside me
To tell you please let me be
Communication, a telephonic invasion
I’m planning my escape…
(Yeah) Sorry I’m not home right now
I’m walking into spiderwebs
So leave a message
And I’ll call you back
A likely story, but (Yeah) leave a message
And I’ll call you back
And it’s all your fault
I screen my phone calls
No matter who calls
I gotta screen my phone calls
Now it’s gone to deep (Now, it’s gone too deep)
You wake me in my sleep (Wake me in my sleep)
My dreams become nightmares (Dreams become nightmares)
‘Cause you’re ringing in my ears
(Yeah) Sorry I’m not home right now
I’m walking into spiderwebs
So leave a message
And I’ll call you back
A likely story, but (Yeah) leave a message
And I’ll call you back
And it’s all your fault
I screen my phone calls
No matter-matter-matter-matter who calls
I gotta screen my phone calls
Oooh, the spiderwebs
Leave a message and I’ll call you back
I’m walking into spiderwebs
So, leave a message and I’ll call you back
I’m walking into spiderwebs
It’s all your fault, no matter who calls
I gotta screen my phone calls
It’s all your fault, it’s all your fault
No matter who calls, no matter who calls
I’m walking into spiderwebs so,
Leave a message and I’ll call you back
I’m walking into spiderwebs so,
Leave a message and I’ll call you back
this song takes me back
I never knew the lyrics to this song, which is strange since I sung along with it every time it came on the radio. I never really cared for it but it was catchy. I’m pretty sure I am the bucket.
There are worse things than buckets. I knew a guy who was a drum riser with a Scooby Doo pool filled with Jello on it.
North Conway…the best place on Earth. We’re hoping to head up there in October.
And it’s really funny you picked this song this week since it’s one of the songs on the American Idol tour. I know, I’m loaded with useless info.
North Conway does kind of rule. It’s the best thing they have now that The Old Man of the Mountain fell off. LOL @ them.
LOL! It does. And it sucks to be you. I can head up there when I want to and you’re stuck down south. Sorry, that’s not nice of me.
I really can’t wait to go though. That area is the most beautiful during fall foliage.
