Sheep
Sometimes I get so angry with the simple life they lead
The shepherds smile seems to confirm my fears
They've never questioned anything, they've never disagreed
Sometimes I think they must have wool in their ears
And when you see a can I see a crook
And when you see a crowd I see a flock
It's sheep we're up against
Sheep we're up against
When I was young they used to get me counting sheep
But the counting I did was all in vain
Now when I'm tired and I'm trying to get to sleep
I count humans jumping onto trains
And when you see a can I see a crook
And when you see a crowd I see a flock
It's sheep we're up against
Sheep we're up against
(Influential Guitar Break)
And when you see a can I see a crook
And when you see a crowd I see a flock
It's sheep we're up against
Sheep we're up against
The shepherds smile seems to confirm my fears
They've never questioned anything, they've never disagreed
Sometimes I think they must have wool in their ears
And when you see a can I see a crook
And when you see a crowd I see a flock
It's sheep we're up against
Sheep we're up against
When I was young they used to get me counting sheep
But the counting I did was all in vain
Now when I'm tired and I'm trying to get to sleep
I count humans jumping onto trains
And when you see a can I see a crook
And when you see a crowd I see a flock
It's sheep we're up against
Sheep we're up against
(Influential Guitar Break)
And when you see a can I see a crook
And when you see a crowd I see a flock
It's sheep we're up against
Sheep we're up against
