about

Written with a friend (Scott Adams) for a movie we made back when we were drunk.

lyrics

End of summer, night
Waiting for night to begin
I know this girl, yeah she’s alright
I’m on my way to see her again

Put on my shoes, the fancy pair
Throw on my coat, dishevel my hair
Eleven o’clock I said I’d be there
Smoked a blunt and now I’m fucked

Leaving the debauchery behind
I can’t walk the regular line
The road to her house, a waste of my time
I’m taking the shortcut

Cutting through backyards
I give the finger to the school
Reached the field man I’ve gone far
Don’t cut through it that’s the farmer’s rule

Fuck the farmer, I’m gonna follow that star
Damn this filed looked smooth from a far
Trippin’ fallin’ where is my car
I’ve got to see her eyes

What’s that moving off to the right
Something coming out of the night
It’s just that old Scarecrow, right?
Well not this time…

The Scarecrow came alive
The Scarecrow came alive
Well something wasn’t right
But he wasn’t a bad guy

The Scarecrow came alive
The Scarecrow came alive
He said his name was Mike
He asked me for a light…

We talked of politics and ignorance
And stupid people on the fence
And I conversed in recompence
Then said I had to go

He said my friend won’t you stay
With me until the break of day
In fact don’t ever go away
And I said Mr. Scarecrow, no…

I said no…
He watched me go…
Told her the story of my night
It was the craziest shit that ever happened in my life and all she said was…
So…

So…

So the Scarecrow came alive
The Scarecrow came alive
Well something wasn’t right
But he wasn’t a bad guy

The Scarecrow came alive
The Scarecrow came alive
He said his name was Mike
He asked me for a light…

And when I walked on by
The Scarecrow he had died
Well something wasn’t right
You know I should have stayed the night!
