The lyrics speak about what the band, especially the leader, will do after their gig is over: Sittin' thinkin' sinkin' drinkin' Wondering what I'll do when I'm through tonightSmokin', mopin', maybe just hopin'Some little girl will pass on by Jagger explained in a 1995 interview with Rolling Stone, "I wasn't really that mad about it, but when you listen to it on record, it still holds up quite interestingly as a blues song. It's a Jimmy Reed blues with British pop-group words, which is an interesting combination: a song somewhat stuck in a time warp." In an AllMusic review, Mike DeGagne describes it as one of their earliest attempts at country music. The Stones have performed "The Spider and the Fly" live very rarely: they did so during two eras of their career, in 1965-1966 and once during the 1995 leg of their Voodoo Lounge Tour. A March 1995 studio reworking of the song was included on the Stones' album Stripped. For this version the age of the woman in the song was updated from thirty to fifty. (en)
