Scarecrow Tappin' at My Back Door
Lyrics: Maureen S. O'Brien, Dec. 1997 - 1/23/98
Music: "Amaryllis", The Flash Girls, MAURICE AND I
Insp: Scarecrow and Mrs. King

Scarecrow tappin' at my back door,
Callin' me out to his secret war.
Is that what I breathe faster for?
Mystery --
Tell me why a tall and handsome spy
Looks at me with *that* look in his eye?
(I) Do believe he may be mine.
I do believe it!

Here's our cover: a married pair.
Did our cover say to stroke my hair?
Little touch makin' sure I'm there --
I don't mind.
Can't help touchin' you just the same.
Can't help me seein' outside the game.
(I) Do believe you may be mine.
I do believe it!

BRIDGE:
Stranger, partner, now when'd you start
Slippin' away with a housewife's heart?
There it lies, on the palm of your hand --
If you left now,  you know I'd understand.

Scarecrow liftin' me across my floor,
Wearing rings we never could before.
Now my mother, my kids, are yours.
Now we're free.
Worlds that only touched are one at last.
Too bad our years go by so fast.
(I) Do believe that you are mine.
I do believe it!

Repeat 1st verse.
