"Standing Ovation" lyrics

"Standing Ovation"

Standing ovation
Congratulations
I see how you fooling 'em
You hide, we never seek
Lost sheep just looking for peace
Led by everything we see
Move us around like ouija
Emotions sway so easily
A round of applause is what you need

So go 'head
You should take your bow
Congratulations, you let me down

It's like we are puppets
For the ventriloquist
In need of something
That doesn't even exist
Subjects for the hypnotist
Got our head spinning round like the exorcist

You hide, we never seek
Lost sheep just looking for peace
Led by everything we see
A round of applause, what you need

Sheep's clothing help a wolf to hide
Got me brainwashed and hypnotized
But no longer you control my mind
I can't believe that I been so blind
When it's right in front of my eyes

I'm reaching, trying to pull the knife out my back
I'm always on edge now, I cannot relax
I took what you said and considered it fact
So glad I woke out my nap
Show is over, that's a wrap
Your performance made an impact
We award you for the way you act
Close the curtains and we all clap

Sheep's clothing help a wolf to hide
Got me brainwashed and hypnotized
But no longer you control my mind
I can't believe that I been so blind
When it's right in front of my eyes

Round of applause
You fooled us all
Round of applause
You fooled us all

You can't deceive us
Clap to that
You can't mislead us
Clap to that

You can't mistreat us
Clap to that
We don't believe ya
Clap to that

Sheep's clothing help a wolf to hide
Got me brainwashed and hypnotized
But no longer you control my mind
I can't believe that I been so blind
When it's right in front of my eyes

Sheep's clothing help a wolf to hide
Got me brainwashed and hypnotized
But no longer you control my mind
I can't believe that I been so blind
When it's right in front of my eyes
