Spiderman
Ramones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spiderman, Spiderman Does whatever a spider can
Spins a web any size Catches thieves just like flies
Look out, here comes the Spiderman
Is he strong? Listen Bud He's got radioactive blood
Can he swing from a thread ? Take a look overhead
Hey, there! There goes the Spiderman
In the chill of the night, At the scene of a crime
Like a streak of light, He arrives just in time
Spiderman, Spiderman Friendly neighborhood, Spiderman
Wealth and fame, is ignored Action is his reward
Look out, here comes the Spiderman
In the chill of the night At the scene of a crime
Like a streak of light He arrives just in time
Spiderman, Spiderman Friendly neighborhood, Spiderman
Wealth and fame, is ignored Action is his reward
To him, life's a great big bang up Whenever there's a hang up
You'll find the Spiderman!
The Ramones' song "Spiderman" is an ode to the beloved Marvel Comics superhero. The song begins with Spiderman's famous catchphrase "Spiderman, Spiderman, does whatever a spider can," and then goes on to describe some of his key abilities such as spinning webs of any size and catching thieves like flies. The chorus warns us to look out, as Spiderman is always ready to spring into action.
The second verse raises the question of Spiderman's strength, to which the answer is he has radioactive blood, and can swing from a thread overhead. The lyrics then describe how he arrives at the scene of a crime like a streak of light, just in time to save the day. The song highlights Spiderman's friendly neighborhood persona and how he is ignored by wealth and fame. His reward is action, and whenever there's a hang-up, Spiderman is there to fix it.
Overall, the song perfectly captures the essence of Spiderman as a superhero: his agility, bravery, and willingness to fight crime in his local area. The light-hearted nature of the song also reflects the cheeky humor that the Marvel character has become synonymous with.
