"Beautiful Scarecrow" lyrics

"Beautiful Scarecrow"

Pull off my legs, pull off my wings
You beautiful scarecrow, you pull the strings
You're deep in shit, you're deep in debt
You want all the things, you can never get

You spit me out
You suck the air from the room and you give me cause to doubt
And here you are in your new career
You leave them all behind, you're such a bad idea

You twist the face, you twist the facts
You're lashing out to see how I react
You're never wanted, you're never there
You beautiful scarecrow, you're unimpaired

No longer slaves
We're just the lonely souls that took their place
And here you are, a charming racketeer
You leave them all behind, you're such a bad idea
