Thread Name: Anybody remember 'Spider's Web' ?
Subject: BS: Anybody remember 'Spider's Web' ?
There used to be a show on the local NPR radio station called "Spider's Web" which read children's books. I remember listening to it on rainy afternoons during my work-study job in college.

Anyway it had a theme song which sounded for all the world like it was sung by Tom Chapin. It went something like this (through 20 years of faltering memory):

It's a web like a spider's web
Made of [?] and knotted shadows
Spun by the moon in my room each night
It's a web made to catch a dream
Hold it tight till I awaken
As if to tell me dreaming's all right.

Anybody else remember? Was that really Tom Chapin? Or just somebody who sounds like Tom Chapin?
