"Sympathetic
Scarecrow"
Verse
1:
Who nailed you up there
And strung you limb from limb
Who failed to judge you fair
Were you betrayed by a friend
Verse 2:
Where was your father then (and)
Why didn't he set you free
Did you sacrifice for my sins
And other children like me
Chorus:
Sympathetic scarecrow
Where are you these days
Sympathetic scarecrow
Come
chase all our black crows away...
Verse 3:
Why
did they take your life away
Has love always been a crime
Are you hangin' there to scare away
The wicked crows off the line
Verse 4:
When are you comin' down again
From your weather-ridden cross
To take up your crown again
Covered by centuries of moss
[repeat chorus]
Verse 5:
Can I see you on a sunny day
Your spirit wavin' in the wind
Watchin' over a field of hay (souls)
Until the harvest time begins
[repeat chorus]
