๐ Lyrics
When you're a sheep in wolf's clothing, you have big, important friends
Who with a twinkle in their eyes say they'll be with you 'til the end
They invite you out to ice cream
They insist you eat your fill
Then they smile at each other and they stick you with the bill
They giggle extra hard when you max out your credit card
When you're a sheep in wolf's clothing, you're watched over by your friends
They hook you up with an apartment in a big barbed-wire pen
And they come and pinch your cheeks with such fatherly affection
And they tap into your e-mail solely for your own protection
If they counted votes from black sheep, would they still win their elections
And you live a life of privilege in the shadow of your friends
Who've secured the greenest pastures with their business acumen
So you graze on the grasses and you're spared from ever thinking
Or from knowing why your friends are always snickering and winking
You're fed shock and awe and you swallow without thinking
Then one day, with dismay, your friends say you've been attacked,
But you can buy a shred of safety with the shirt right off your back
And your sacrifice reveals, you patriotic sons and daughters
Were once sheep in wolf's clothing now you're lambs at the slaughter
Who with a twinkle in their eyes say they'll be with you 'til the end
They invite you out to ice cream
They insist you eat your fill
Then they smile at each other and they stick you with the bill
They giggle extra hard when you max out your credit card
When you're a sheep in wolf's clothing, you're watched over by your friends
They hook you up with an apartment in a big barbed-wire pen
And they come and pinch your cheeks with such fatherly affection
And they tap into your e-mail solely for your own protection
If they counted votes from black sheep, would they still win their elections
And you live a life of privilege in the shadow of your friends
Who've secured the greenest pastures with their business acumen
So you graze on the grasses and you're spared from ever thinking
Or from knowing why your friends are always snickering and winking
You're fed shock and awe and you swallow without thinking
Then one day, with dismay, your friends say you've been attacked,
But you can buy a shred of safety with the shirt right off your back
And your sacrifice reveals, you patriotic sons and daughters
Were once sheep in wolf's clothing now you're lambs at the slaughter
