Black Sheep
Black sheep (Black sheep)
Black sheep, black sheep, me
I wasn't dreaming
Barely awake
Off to the grinder we stroll
Not just a fleecing spilling his swill
Just half of the kill
My vanishing memories
Of Paradise Hill
What do I care?
I'm in a field serene
Miles and miles of solid green
For to feed the flock
Is a love supreme
I just close my eyes
When I fantasize
Much to my surprise
I'm only half the size
That I used to be
Bye, bye, white brother
This black sheep gotta roll
I just open up
Like a catacomb
Though my heart is halved
From the half that's home
For the life of me
Bye, bye, pastures of plenty
I don't know where I will go
(Black sheep, black sheep)
The fields are in harmony
Half is unsung
Now that the blade has been swung
(Black sheep, black Sheep)
The two are inside of me
Used to be one sheep
Black sheep, me
I'm losing my fleece from trying
I'm losing no sleep, I'm dying
Why shouldn't I keep from crying?
I'm losing my fleece from trying
I'm losing no sleep, I'm dying
Why shouldn't I keep from crying?
(Black sheep, black sheep)
A hole in the universe
A spot on the sun
Just when the day has begun
(Black sheep, black sheep)
I'm counting the clouds of fleece
Starting at one sheep
Black Sheep, me
