Count Sheep

[Verse 1]

She's captain of her sails

Too bad the winds got in her way

Tide’s changing up ahead

So cut off your ears, head east of issues

This conversation's done

We've covered heads, she's covered tails

She's cut off her conscience, son

Deep in your head, and you're still

[Chorus]

Crying but you don't have the right

You take sides with spirit and forsake them with spite

Bundle all of the yarn up in a gluttonous heap

You would use the whole barn up, but you love to count sheep

So count sheep

[Verse 1]

This diamond's not for sale

With big advertisements in our heads

One lie won't tip the scale

For rich little beggars making big bets

They're out to lunch this call

Fat cats away, dead mice decay

Recount your own recourse

Awake in your bed, and lay there

[Chorus]

Crying that you don't have the right

Go on, open your feeder for another big bite

You run all kinds of red lights except the ones on your street

When you run out of exits, you can always count sheep

So count sheep
