SCARECROW
©Angry Johnny And The Killbillies, Bonesaw Lullaby BMI

“BRING HIM TO ME”

It’s time we put a stop to this foolish nonsense
It’s time that we mop up these rebellious fools
If you cannot defeat a bunch of half dead scarecrows
I’ll find somebody who can

Now you say you’ve got him under arrest
Bring him to me on the double
Bring him let me have a look at this pest
Who’s been giving us so much trouble

So you’re the one who’s been a thorn in my side
The one who threw the wrench in my plans
You don’t look like much you’re skin and bones
Just another walking dead man

You will answer for your crimes now
You will answer for your sins
You will choke upon your pride now
You were never going to win anyway

You will tell us what we want to know
You will tell us where they’re hiding
Cat got your tongue well that’s just too bad
Your clock is ticking to it’s ending

“ALIVE BUT ALL ALONE” ©Angry Johnny-Bonesaw Lullaby BMI

Feel cooped up like a rat in a cage
The toys in your attic are crawling
You’re coming undone but there’s nowhere to run
In your head you can hear the dead calling

A walk in the woods won’t do you no good
You won’t be out there alone
Every sound that you hear will be something to fear
The rattling of them bones

The army of dead are moving
They’re coming to take you home

You hear them out there they are everywhere
Like a mouse you just cower and hide
Remember the day when it all went away
When the doorway to Hell opened wide

And quietly there rotting into her chair
The love of your life she festers
Remember she was all you were living for then
What are you living for now

What do you think you’re proving
Alive but all alone

“TELL US” ©Angry Johnny Bonesaw Lullaby BMI

You better tell us your plans now
You know we have our ways
Ways of making you talk
Ways of making you say
Things you want to keep inside
Secrets that you try to hide
You better tell us what we want to know
And we’ll know if you have lied

Don’t try to be a hero
Heroics are for chumps
I’ll count from ten down to zero
And then I’ll light you up
You’re gonna shake like Elvis
You’re gonna shine like a Christmas tree
But if you simply tell us
I’ll put you out of your misery
So tell us what we want to know
Just tell us and be done
Looks like we got ourselves a real tough guy
It’s time to have some fun
Get ready boy to dance now
Get ready boy to cry
Get ready boy to sing now
Get ready boy to die

In a permanent haze
People think it’s a phase
But my madness is growing…
