Blubbity, blubbity, blub, my friend,
Blubbity, blub in the tub,
Blubbity, blue, blubbity, blee,
Blubbity, blub those crows... You’ll see.

I stand in a cornfield, scaring up crows.
I’m waving my arms and wiggling my toes.
The crows they’re ain’t lookin’,
They don’t seem to care,
No matter how many blubbity, blubs,
I yell in the air!

Blubbity, blubbity, blub, my friend,
Blubbity, blub in the tub,
Blubbity, blue, blubbity, blee,
Blubbity, blub those crows... You’ll see.

You might think this is silly,
Especially me,
You might call it wacky,
Waving my arms at the trees.
But them crows, they be rasc’ly,
One, two, and three,
Those crows, they be scardy,
Listenin’ to me!

Blubbity, blubbity, blub, my friend,
Blubbity, blub in the tub,
Blubbity, blue, blubbity, blee,
Blubbity, blub those crows... You’ll see.

Who be this scarecrow,
Who can’t scare up no crows?
Is he really a scarecrow?
Lord only knows,
But watch this scarecrow,
And you'll see how it goes,
You'll see this scarecrow,
Thump a crow on it’s nose!

Blubbity, blubbity, blub, my friend,
Blubbity, blub in the tub,
Blubbity, blue, blubbity, blee,
Blubbity, blub those crows... You’ll see.

Blubbity, blubbity, blub, my friend,
Blubbity, blub in the tub,
Blubbity, blue, blubbity, blee,
Blubbity, blub those crooooows... You’ll seeEEEEEeee.

Here it is. First run through. Just as before, anything can be changed. We'll have to find Scarecrows best key for singing. Let me know what you think.

Dang Myron. Your tunes have so much personality.
This one is just begging for a harmonica...

Now appearing at a cornfield near you! Scarecrow and the Strawpacker Five performing their just released hit:
"Blubbity Blub"
TheSpleen

Ackkkkk....I can't get this song outta my Blubbbbity blub head - Blub YOU all!

Blubbing cute song, expertly done with just the right amount of blubbery sophistication...

I blub it.

Blubly.
Rodney
Yup... got a suggestion here too. wink.gif

Martin/Holmes/whomever,
I object to objectify the tub in this nonsensical song.
There, I've said it. wink.gif

Unless Scarecrow is actually in a tub in which case I withdraw my objection. smile.gif

The suggestion would be to add more blubbitys and blubs.

So:

might become...

Blubbity, blubbity, blub, my friends
Blubbity, blubbity blub (or Blubbity, blub blub blub)
Blubbity, blue, blubbity, blee,
Blubbity, blub those crows... You'll see.

Rational: (do we need any for such a nonsensical song?)
I can easily imagine Scarecrow's pantomime performance underwater... swimming... holding his breath... but I wouldn't restrict it to the image/idea of a bathtub. Any underwater place in the audiences imagination will do.

More importantly, it gives the animators more freedom.
God forbid someone introduces a tub into this scene just because the word is used in the song. wink.gif

Edit: I'm not sure where this fits into the script. (Cornfield?)
This is pretty important stuff those. The movie is about him!
