Scarecrow stood like Jesus Christ While the rain came down as ice And froze his face into a twisted smile Black crow perched atop the barn Shaking trying to keep warm Watching Mr. Scarecrow all the while
Black Crow knows that scarecrow dying His face is solid frozen And he’ll be too if he cannot get warmer Before this mighty mean ice storm Scarecrow kept this wealthy farm The pride of Mr. Jebediah Farmer
Now Jebediahs gone away Because the bills could not get paid He flew away on bullet bound for Jesus But still the icy rain comes down Before long Scarecrow’s gonna drown Unless the wind first tears him into pieces
Black Crow stands on solid steal Looking for a solid meal Scarecrow’s smiling saying “Come and get some” I have nothing to defend And I will never live again Everything’s been pissed away to heaven
Scarecrow thought of Farmer Jeb And the bullet he put in his head All because he could never live a poor man Now Scarecrow’s feeling awful cold Half as proud and twice as bold And curses Jeb as not worth a good goddamn
“Find a man so rich with power But underneath is such a coward To take his life but leave his only begotten scarecrow He left me here to shoo the crows From all the crops that long since froze An ornament among the ice and snow”
Black crow listens from the barn To his old enemy of the farm Cause sometimes you just need someone to listen Then he flies closer to his foe Who keeps the food from the hungry crows Knowing there is no more food it is all frozen
Black Crow sees the scarecrows smile Shocked at his irreverent style Because scarecrows are so often stern and callous Black crow says to his old enemy “Do you have any thing for me? Your smile makes a starving bird so jealous”
Scarecrow says “The game is done I guess you could say that you won But soon you may follow me to heaven Black Crow says “My dear old foe That kingdom is far too cold I was cast out once and I do not want back in”

"The standard by which I now measure the things in my life is the following: If I was on my death bed, or if I knew I had a short time to live, would this issue be important? If the answer is no.. I don't sweat it at all. If the answer is Yes, you better believe it goes to the front of the order of today's business!" -Brian Austin Whitney
