The Flattening

Circlin' the outside, the rabbit took the crops
Instead of bringing out the Cattleman
I took it to the cops
And they've been chasing down the cattle, man
For God knows how long
Stirring up the trouble
Feel like killing them is wrong
Well, I've been a dreamer, a sheep among mankind
But when they flatten out the land, baby, I tend to change my mind

I've been lurking
I've been lookin' for a place to go
But when the tear ducts look like houses
And fires look like flowers
I wanna hike my way back home

Twenty-odd years since I robbed that bank
Only got my partner in crime, Hank, to thank
Oh, he left me straight
He got away
I'll tell you I'll kill that scallywag one day

Rebrand might be what I need
Elect a group of thieves
For deviancy
Change hair, exchange clothes
Change whatever your name goes
I broke out, I can break back in
Just to frame Hank and call a win a win

Well, I've been a dreamer, a sheep among mankind
But when they flatten out the land, baby
I tend to change my mind
I've been a dreamer, a sheep among mankind
But when they flatten out the land, baby
I tend to change my mind

I've been a dreamer, a sheep among mankind

Take me
Take me
Come on, take me
Take me
Come on, take me
