The Lyrics
Digging and planting
And spraying Super-Gro
Picking and a-pruning
But not a nut to show
Makes a fella worry
Boy, I need a good scarecrow
Squirrels are raiding my pecan tree
Their paws are primed to go
Squirrels are raiding my pecan tree
Their maws all overflow
I was squawkin' to a neighbor
Said pumpkin's fine in pie
Then I ran into the fishman
He sold me tripe to fry
Got no need to hurry
Boy, there'll be all week to cry
Squirrels are raiding my pecan tree
Like bossy dynamos
Squirrels are raiding my pecan tree
A saw's my final blow
And spraying Super-Gro
Picking and a-pruning
But not a nut to show
Makes a fella worry
Boy, I need a good scarecrow
Squirrels are raiding my pecan tree
Their paws are primed to go
Squirrels are raiding my pecan tree
Their maws all overflow
I was squawkin' to a neighbor
Said pumpkin's fine in pie
Then I ran into the fishman
He sold me tripe to fry
Got no need to hurry
Boy, there'll be all week to cry
Squirrels are raiding my pecan tree
Like bossy dynamos
Squirrels are raiding my pecan tree
A saw's my final blow

Well, that was different. Someone's on a Neil Young role. Was having trouble with the pacing until I remembered my battle with Merry about Squir-rels/Squirls!
There's a half-tame squirrel around my yard..but I don't go near him..too quick and big-toothed, and don't care to contribute to his Fall storage
Porfle, you didn't get my goat with this parody- you got my squirrel!!! 555!!! I live near a park so since you can't touch anything it's like the friggin' Discovery Channel out here! I remember back in the 1970s being asked in class about if I was reincarnated what animal I would like to be. While the other boys said Lion, Tiger, Bear, etc... I said Honey Badger with Mongoose and Tazmanian Devil as back-ups. My teacher sent me for a psychological evaluation at a "special" class and this was just Grade School!!!
Thanks for the comments! I live in a park-like neighborhood so I'm surrounded by squirrels. As well as the occasional possum, raccoon, and rabbit. I actually have a pecan tree in my backyard but I gave it over to the squirrels a long time ago.
...and raiding my avocado tree.
Holy guacamole!
I don't have any trouble with squirrels, but I do have a groundhog eating my nasturtium... :(
Yikes, that sounds painful.
