"Boris the Spider"
The Who
A Quick One, 1966
In my marriage, I attempt to live with a bit of equality. I don't buy into many gender norms, and I'm pretty comfortable with my wife wearing the pants in many situations. One area where my masculinity reigns supreme involves insects. Twice in the past week, I've been called on to dispatch a wayward critter that was scaring my wife and children. In one instance, the bug was very much dead, and also dried up. If this John Entwistle-penned tune became animated and wandered into my kitchen, I'm sure I'd have to squish poor Boris too.
