Met an old lady in Carlsbad
Who got bit on the ankle by a spider
It swelled on up to about the size of her knee
She was carrying clothes in a plastic bag and breathing kinda heavy
Havin' a hard day was plane to see
She said "somebody stole my shopping cart
It's sittin' out side the door
I don't understand, who could be so cruel?"
She said "Karma is a serious thing and a force to be reckoned with
And well the wipper-snapper that took it is a fool"
And now I'm walkin' with an old lady
Down to the corner bus stop
Talkin' about Jesus and how her heart he won
Talkin' with an old lady down at the corner bus stop
She said expect you a miracle before the day be done.
