And just for fun, one of the best pop songs evah!!! By the amazing Housemartins, and just listen to the lyrics - from 1986!!! Even more relevant today than back then. This guy (Paul Heaton) is a lyrical genius.
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
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
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
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
