Bruce Hornsby - Sneaking Up On Boo Radley Lyrics
Crawl up the back stepsUp to the back doorReach up in the darkTurn the handle a little moreOpen up real slowSo the door don't creakLook ahead and look behindDon't shuffle your feetThey say he's crazy, they say he's goneWe play our tricks, make up funny songsSneaking around, feeling badlySneaking up on Boo RadleyHear the caterpillar crawlHear the bed buds biteHear the crickets screamAll the sounds of the nightHear the sound of footprintsON the ground I think I sayDon't step on the lightning bugsWatch the crack in your kneesThey say he's crazy, they say he's goneWe play our tricks, make up funny songsSneaking around, feeling badlySneaking up on Boo RadleyThey say he's funny, got a loose screwStay away, he's a threat to youGive him a break, what do we knowMight turn out we would like him soWe fear what we just don't knowI heard he served a long time agoSaw some things we'll never knowWe laugh and sneak around in teh nightFun and games but I know it's not rightScared and fascinatedIgnorant we castigate himScared and fascinatedIgnorant we flagellate himThey say he's crazy, they say he's goneWe play our tricks, make up funny songsDown the street, walking sadlyMy little sister, loves him madlyFeeling like the Man From GladlySneaking up on Boo Radley
