dude you guys are funny. if the person who wrote/performed the song says it's about a nightmare he had, why can't you accept that it IS about a nightmare he had? no, he didn't base it on that poem, though they are similar. you can find the video on Yahoo Launch. launch.yahoo.com (you'll need to be a member of yahoo to view more than 1 or 2 videos).
it's definitely somewhat based on the poem. at the end of the song you can hear robert whisper "so come into my parlor said the spider to the fly, i have a little something here" and he usually sings that line when they play it live. that's definitely sort of borrowed from the poem.

@misskitty because it's a song played in every radio and pub and picked up as a single from an album meant to have none, so he has other interests besides spoonfeeding meanings to MTV.
