Lyrics

Crawl up the back steps up to the back door
 Reach up in the dark, turn the handle a little more
 Open up real slow so the door won't creak
 Look ahead, look behind, don't shuffle your feet
 They say he's crazy, they say he's gone
 We play our tricks, make up funny songs
 Sneaking around, feeling badly
 Sneaking up on Boo Radley
 Hear the caterpillar crawl, hear the bed buds bite
 Hear the crickets scream, all the sounds of the night
 Hear the sound of footprints on the ground I think I say
 Don't step on the lightning bugs, watch the crack in your knees
 They say he's crazy, they say he's gone
 We play our tricks, make up funny songs
 Sneaking around, feeling badly
 Sneaking up on Boo Radley
 They say he's funny, got a loose screw
 Stay away, he's a threat to you
 Give him a break, what do we know
 Might turn out we would like him so
 We fear what we just don't know
 I heard he served a long time ago
 He saw some things we'll never know
 We laugh and sneak around in the night
 Fun and games but I know it's not right
 Scared and fascinated
 Ignorant we castigate him
 Scared and fascinated
 Ignorant we flagellate him
 They say he's crazy, they say he's gone
 We play our tricks, make up funny songs
 Down the street walking sadly
 Little sister loves him madly
 Feeling like the man from Gladly
 Sneaking up on Boo Radley
 Sneaking up on Boo Radley
