This goes out to all the scarecrows all over the world
and my mom
It used to be ideal
hanging round in fields
making all the crows turn chicken
it used to be my goal
but now its getting cold
i'd rather make a proper living
all the birds here know my face
they even know my name
i'm giving up the scarecrow life
i'll find another game
what can i be(what can i be)
what can i do (what can i do)
maybe a sailor or a superhero dude
maybe i'll sail
maybe i'll fly
all i know is in this great big world
theres endless oppurtunities to try
i know there are lots of possibilities but
at times it doesnt seem like it when your standing in a field
on your own
let me tell you about it
it used to me my role
tied up to a pole
saving all the peas and carrots
but out in wind and rain
everydays the same
scaring off the hares and rabbits
and though i love this country life
and scaring crows is fun
i'd love to take a holiday
and lay out in the sun
what can i be(what can i be)
what can i do (what can i do)
maybe a dj
or the man up in the moon
just what to be
i cant decide
all i know is in this great big world
theres endless oppurtunities to try
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la
all i know is in this great big world
theres endless possibilities to try
you know maybe i should be happy where i am
not everybody can be a good scarecrow
most people are not even scary enough
and some people dont live near any crows
you know the more i think about it
i've got a really great life!
i've got great friends and a great jo
and i'm gonna concentrate on being the best scarecrow i can be
the best on the world!!
so now i know
so now i see
it's so easy all i have to be is me
maybe i'll sail
maybe i'll fly
all i know is in this great big world
theres endless possibilities to try
i dont think its so bad when you have a simple jo
where you get spend time outdoors
i think i feel sorry for nuclear physisists
they have to spend their whole day inside
looking at nuclears
i think a simple jobs a good thing for a simple guy like me
i could try and be the man who folds the milk cartons for a while
or i could watch paint dry
or maybe i could just be a scarecrow
Spud the scarecrow thats me!
with a bit of singing of course
