Perfect Little Sheep:

If I...could find...my center...

If I...could find...my peace..

Maybe I wouldn't have to suffer...

To follow your plan for me...

You like to have your oppression

You like to play Queen

But let me tell you a little secret

I'm not your perfect little sheep...

(Chorus)

Follow the kill

Follow the sheep

Swallow the pill

Sew what you reap

Follow the kill

Follow the sheep

Take what you will

While we sleep

(End chorus)

Everything's for the taking

Or at least that's what you thought

But now that I'm fighting the opression

It's you who's caught

(Chorus)

Follow the kill

Follow the sheep

Swallow the pill

Sew what you reap

Follow the kill

Follow the sheep

Take what you will

While we sleep

But here is where it ends....

Here...Is where it ENDS....

(break)

Here, take another pill

Shove it down your throat

It's for your own good

I swear, I will never tell

Don't you understand now

It's for your own good

It's for your own good...

It's for your own....GOOD!

(Chorus)

Follow the kill

Follow the sheep

Swallow the pill

Sew what you reap

Follow the kill

Follow the sheep

Take what you will

While we sleep
