I Wanna Be A Sheep

Intro I wanna be a sheep Verse I was a wolf for so long, howlin' up toward the moon I devoured the defenseless sheep-like balloons That were tied to a railing and would anyway soon Be deflated I met you in between my carnivorous meals And your hair was so soft and your body was real And the layers of leaves blew away to reveal A new pathway Now I'm tryin' to hide my love away, be discrete But you're a reason to change and end my violent streak A reason to be normal, a reason to bleat like a sheep I just wanna be a sheep I just wanna be a sheep following right along with the crowds A ballon with my head floating up through the clouds And a little white string holding me to the ground Could that be you? It could be you I just wanna be a sheep Oh, well, da-di-da-di-da-da Verse Now the clock on the wall plays a sinister game It treats every twelve hours exactly the same And you cannot return and you can't get away It keeps going And everything you've done you can never undo So I know that it's useless to try and be new But when you keep your eye on me, steady and blue I keep trying anyways And that eye watching me makes me not want to hurt I don't want to draw anymore blood on your shirt And I don't want to stay up and paw through the dirt I need sleep I just wanna be a sheep I just wanna be a sheep and be gentle and docile and dumb And to hear a voice call me and know I must come And a shepherd to lead me and forget where I'm from Could that be you? It could be you I just wanna be a sheep Oh, (howling) Okay Verse Yes, I am the one who's been killing the flock I admit it and now that you're over the shock Would you take me and keep me and turn back the clock With your pretty little hand? Outro I just wanna be a sheep I just I just wanna be a sheep Woo! (Howling)
