| Hope you enjoyed your flight
|
| In one of our new straw aeroplanes
|
| You’ll find things here are just like
|
| What you’re used to
|
| There’s lots of waste and razor wire
|
| And no one gives a damn about the land
|
| We just stand around and stare
|
| Like you folks do
|
| For we ain’t got no brains
|
| And we ain’t got no hearts
|
| It’s just that wild old wind
|
| That tears us all apart
|
| We’re the scarecrow people
|
| Have we got lots in common with you
|
| And if you don’t start living well
|
| You’re all gonna wind up scarecrow people too
|
| Hope you enjoyed your meal
|
| It’s only gas and chemicals
|
| We thought that you’d prefer
|
| Something not nature made
|
| Now while you’re here can you advise us
|
| On a war we’d like to start
|
| Against some scarecrows over there
|
| A different shade?
|
| For we ain’t got no brains
|
| And we ain’t got no hearts
|
| It’s just that wild old wind
|
| That tears us all apart
|
| We’re the scarecrow people
|
| Have we got lots in common with you
|
| And if you don’t start living well
|
| You’re all gonna wind up scarecrow people too
|
| We don’t have no tears here, no one hopes or cares or fears here
|
| For the old, the sick, the poor and them what taint you
|
| We thought we’d base our civilization upon yours
|
| 'Cause you’re the smartest animals on earth, now ain’t you?
|
| We don’t have no love here, there’s no need to rise above here
|
| No one wants to write a book or try to paint thee
|
| We thought we’d base our civilization upon yours
|
| 'Cause we’re all dead from our necks up, now ain’t we?
|
| And we ain’t got no brains
|
| And we ain’t got no hearts
|
| It’s just that wild old wind
|
| That tears us all apart
|
| We’re the scarecrow people
|
| Have we got lots in common with you
|
| And if you don’t start living well
|
| You’re all gonna wind up scarecrow people too
|
| And I ain’t got no brains
|
| And I ain’t got no heart
|
| It’s just them other humans
|
| Tear my soul apart
|
| I’m a scarecrow person
|
| Have I got quite some message for you
|
| For if we don’t start learning well
|
| We’re all gonna wind up scarecrow people too |
