The Scarecrow

The scarecrow is a scarey crow

Who guards a private patch

Waiting for a trespassing

Little girl to snatch

Spitting soil into her mouth

His twiggy fingers scratch

Pulls her down on to the ground

As circling birdies watch

Drags her to his hidey-hole

And opens up the hatch

Throws her to the crawlies

Then double locks the latch

The scarecrow is a scarey crow

Always out to catch

Juicy bits of compost

To feed his cabbage patch

So don’t go where the scarecrows are

Don’t go there, Don’t go there

Don’t go where the scarecrows are

Don’t go, Don’t go…

Don’t go where the scarecrows are

Don’t go there, Don’t go there

Don’t go where the scarecrows are

Don’t go…
