The black and green scarecrow as ev'ryone knows Stood with a bird on his hat and straw ev'rywhere He didn't care He stood in a field where barley grows His head did no thinking his arms didn't move Except when the wind cut up rough and mice ran around on the ground He stood in a field where barley grows The black and green scarecrow is sadder than me__ But now he's resigned to his fate's 'cause life's not unkind He doesn't mind He stood in a field where barley grows

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un épouvantail noir et vert qui se tient dans un champ d'orge. Il ne semble pas soucier des oiseaux qui se posent sur son chapeau ou des rongeurs qui s'agitent autour de lui. Sa posture immobile et son aire mélancolique laissent transparaître une certaine tristesse face à la vie, bien qu'il semble avoir accepté son sort. Au fond, il symbolise une forme de résignation, conscient que la vie n'est pas toujours cruelle, mais qu'elle manquait d'animation et de pensées.
