Sheep lyrics

Sometimes I get so angry with the simple life they lead

And the shepherd's smile seems to confirm my fears

They've never questioned anything, never disagreed

Sometimes I think they must have wool in their ears

And when you see a cane I see a crook

And when you see a crowd I see a flock

It's sheep we're up against

It's 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
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/housemartins/sheep.html ]
Now when I'm tired and I'm trying to get to sleep

I count humans jumping onto trains



And when you see a cane I see a crook

And when you see a crowd I see a flock

It's sheep we're up against

It's sheep we're up against, ah ha



[influential guitar break]



Ah yeah, ooh

And when you see a cane I see a crook

And when you see a crowd I see a flock

It's sheep we're up against

It's sheep we're up against, woah ho

It's sheep we're up against, woah ho

Woah, woah, woah, woah
