Redback On The Toilet Seat Ralph Ernest 'Slim' Newton There was a redback on the toilet seat, when I was there last night I didn't see him in the dark, but boy I felt his bite. I jumped high up into the air and when I hit the ground That crafty redback spider, wasn't nowhere to be found. I rushed into the missus, told her just where I'd been bit She grabbed the cut-throat razor blade, and I nearly took a fit. I said, "Just forget what's on your mind and call the doctor, please, 'Cause I've got a feeling that your cure is worse than the disease." Chorus: There was a redback on the toilet seat, when I was there last night I didn't see him in the dark, but boy I felt his bite. And now I'm here in hospital, a sad and sorry site And I curse the redback spider, on the toilet seat last night. I can't lie down, I can't sit up and I don't know what to do And all the nurses think it's funny, but that's not my point of view. I tell you it's embarrassing and that to say the least That I'm too sick to eat a bit, while that spider had a feast. And when I get back home again, I'll tell you what I'll do I'll make that redback suffer, for the pain I'm going through. I've had so many needles, that I'm looking like a sieve And I promise you that spider, hasn't very long to live.
