 Seldom  seen  a scarecrow's dream,  I hang  in the hopes of re - placement,
 Castles  tall,  I built  them  all, but I dream  that I'm trapped in the basement!
 And  if you ever  hear  me calling  out,  and if  you've been  by paupers  crowned,
 Be - tween  the world's  of men  and make-believe,  I can be found!
 ||:  / / / / | /  /  /  /  :|| (4 times)
 Plans  I've  made,  a masque  - rade, fading  in fear of the coming  day,
 Heroes'  tales,  like nightin  - gale's,  wrestle  the wind as they  run away!
 And  if you ever  hear  them calling  out,  and if  you've been  by paupers  crowned,
 Be - tween  the world's  of men  and make-believe,  I can be found!
 ||:  / / / / | /  /  /  /  :|| (4 times)
 Doo,  doo,  doo!  Doo, doo  -doo, doo  -doo!  Doo,  doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo!  Doo,  doo -doo!
 Doo,  doo,  doo!  Doo, doo  -doo, doo - doo!  Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo----!
Doo,  doo -doo!  Doo, doo, doo! Doo,  doo - doo!
Doo  -doo, doo  -doo!  Doo,  doo -doo,  doo -doo!
Doo  -doo, doo  -doo! Doo,  doo, doo! Doo,  doo -doo!  Doo-------!
 ||:  / / / / | /  /  /  /  :|| (4 times)
 Garden  gate,  an empty plate... waiting  for someone to come  and fill,
 Scarecrow's  dreams,  like frozen  streams, thirst  for the thaw, but they're running  still!
 And  if you ever  hear  them calling  out,  and if  you've been  by paupers  crowned,
 Be - tween  the world's  of men  and make-believe,  I can be found!
