Sheep Lyrics Artist(Band):Pink Floyd
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air. You'd better watch out! There may be dogs about I looked over Jordan, and I've seen Things are not what they seem. That's what you get for pretending the danger's not real. Meek and obedient you follow the leader Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel. What a surprise! A look of terminal shock in your eyes. Now things are really what they seem. No, this is not a bad dream. The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want He makes me down to lie Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by. With bright knives He releaseth my soul. He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places. He converteth me to lamb cutlets, For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger. When cometh the day we lowly ones, Through quiet reflection, and great dedication Master the art of karate, Lo, we shall rise up, And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water. Bleating and babbling we fell on his neck with a scream. Wave upon wave of demented avengers March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream. Have you heard the news? The dogs are dead! You better stay home And do as you're told. Get out of the road if you want to grow old. If you find some error in Sheep Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Review about Sheep Nate C | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/11/09 I think that it is not better known because the songs are too long for normal radio play, and it was just before Pink Floyd really hit the mainstream. It's cool to see all the people here who understand the allegory to government and the tie in to Animal Farm. Guess a lot of us are a little more than "dimly aware of a certain unease in the air." To Mikeldi | Reviewer: Ian | 5/29/09 I agree that this song is fantastic and that this album is great and underrated, however Mikeldi pointed out that this is an allegory to the government. This album is indeed about the government, but is rather based on George Orwell's novel Animal Farm. The song Pigs is about the leaders abusing their powers, Dogs is about the backstabbing ways of the politics, and Sheep is about how they citizens blindly follow their leaders. Just my input. Amazing & Real | Reviewer: Mikeldi | 9/26/08 Due to my age the first time I heard this song was about early 90's and really knocked me. One of the most scariest & real songs ever written. It's an alegory of the greatest swindle ever made. All the f****n' country on earth and their politicians lies, trying to keep the control over the people through the fear. Our rulers have failed to keep their promises, they are the CANCER of the earth. under rated | Reviewer: PeterPikeBite | 5/13/08 entire animals album way under rated and under played on radio...fell in love with it when it was released and remains among all time favorites....lyrics and music create unique beauty and starkness that makes me want to at times contemplate the clouds or run screaming into the night....animals tour likewise remarkable show.....i am much younger than i look when i listen to this. sheep island | Reviewer: mazari karim | 3/8/08 i've had listened to SHEEP before, and i found it very attractive like song, it was as if sheepswere brought to the studio and given the parole to remind the fate of humanity of.That was really the fact, what could a man say, if there was no sheep.All he'd say could be nonsense. That's the fact, sheep are more aware than us men.Sometimes I myself wonder what I would read in the eye of a sheep. THERE MUST BE AN ANSWER TO THE GOVERNED MAN...THE GOVERNOR WOULD ONLY ENJOY THE TASTE OF MY CUTKETS. Deep | Reviewer: Zebra | 2/16/08 I think Animals is by far the most unknown and underrated Pink Floyd album, at least where I live. No one seems to know it, yet there isn't one second of this album that isn't deep, nerve-racking, or true to modern politics. Sheep is by far one of the greatest and most meaningful songs to come into creation. I wish more people knew about the Animals album. Sheep - a fatalistic but true look into the future re government control!! | Reviewer: Bob | 11/24/07 Who would have thought eh that we are mere sheep(le) mindlessly traversing through life without really knowing what fate befalls us...Masterly, deep lyrics Sheep | Reviewer: Chuck Snow | 10/29/07 "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want He makes me down to lie Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by. With bright knives He releaseth my soul. He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places. He converteth me to lamb cutlets, For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger." I took a sharpie one day and wrote those words on my helmet-liner as a young U.S. Marine. My X.O. was pissed. My friends didn't 'get it'. As I sit here and watch America's youth die to liberate Irag and Afghanistan for WalMart, Pepsi,and Home Depot, the words ring truer now than they ever did... I'm a devout capitalist, but man, the devil is a banker... Humans need to know that coming in... Pink Floyd Fan | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/25/07 I bought "Animals" on vinyl when it was first released. The animal sounds drove my roommate's Doberman nuts so I had to stop playing it. I've recently gotten reaquainted with it and it is better than ever. how can you pick | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/26/07 a greatest PF song? Unpossible I say. but this one is right up there. BEST BAND EVER. BAR NONE.
