Black Widow
Shocked Michelle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time is red
Time is deadly
Time under glass
Time will tell
Time will tell

The tale of the widow
Who walks her web
Mourning the night
Mourning her dead
Mourning her dead

Did you lose him to a broom
Trapped in a corner of the room
Or was it under the foot
Of the marching black boot
Marching black boot

Is it the loneliness of the night
That makes you reach out and bite
The unawakened flesh




You lady in distress
You poor suffering murderess

Overall Meaning

The song "Black Widow" by Shocked Michelle is a haunting and eerie portrayal of a woman mourning the loss of her husband or lover. The lyrics use the metaphor of a spider to describe the widow, who is silently and patiently waiting for her prey. Time is portrayed as a deadly force, as well as the glass that separates the widow from the outside world. The widow moves slowly on her web, mourning the ones who have died and waiting for her next victim.


The lyrics then question the circumstances of the death of the widow's lover. Was it an accidental death, swept away with a broom, or a deliberate act of violence under a marching black boot? The lyrics also suggest that the widow's act of murder may be fueled by loneliness and the need for connection.


Overall, "Black Widow" is a song that captures the haunting and introspective mood of grief and loss, while also exploring the darker aspects of human nature.
