Mary steers clear of the men from spaceBack alley kid with an American faceShe wants the wine, he brings a caseTo carry them on through(I said) you know what I know about the bedroom boysAnd the undercover Russians in a pink Rolls RoyceThey bang the drum, she sets the beatThey carry Miss America out into the streetShe sings snowman, scarecrow, John Doe, buffalo!I wish you wouldn't goI got the arms to reach youI am the scarecrowOhh, I guess you oughta knowI got the hands to teach youI am the scarecrowSnowman, sideshowI fell out of loveIn the snowbound daysRiding the subway in a Valium hazeI need the whites, she gets the bluesIt carries us on throughAll these American boys at the park 'n' shopSelling their memories for a dollar a popIvan the ancient spaceman race fanCorners the market on American tastesAnd says spaceman, scarecrow, peepshow, freakshow!I wish you wouldn't goI got the arms to reach youI am the scarecrowOhh, I guess you oughta knowI got the hands to teach youI am the scarecrowPunk rock videoHey, heyAll the sudden light inside you diesMaybe you're going on aloneMaybe you're going all aloneShe dreams of sunlightSings of smaller thingsWhite sugar bowls and wedding ringsYou're going on from me aloneYou're going on, you're on your ownShe was married alive in a Moscow surgeryHoping to die in a Cold War nurseryAll of the kids back home believe in much more than we doIt's a memory play where the memory fadesInto pictures you took, into records we playedSpy versus spyScarecrow and IOut across the darkness where the bomberjets fly, singingSpaceman, smokeshow, scarecrow, geronimo!I wish you wouldn't goI got the arms to reach youI am the scarecrowOhh, I guess you oughta knowI got the hands to teach youI am the scarecrowSnowman, freakshowCome on, come on, come on!Ohh, I wish you wouldn't goI got the arms to reach youI am the scarecrowOh, scarecrowOhh, I guess you oughta knowI got the hands to teach youI am the scarecrowListen on the midnight radio
