My Brightest Diamond - Black Sheep Lyrics

My Brightest Diamond Lyrics

"Black Sheep"

The black sheep, black sheep
Black sheep saw the moon and
The black sheep, black sheep
Knew what to do
They read the sky
Saw a shooting star fall down
Then the black sheep knew
It was time to come to town

If you ever meet a black sheep
Don't give 'em any rules
If you think you can tame 'em
Then you would become the fool
If you tell 'em to go right
They'll go left instead
When you tell 'em to follow
They refuse to be led

The black sheep, black sheep
Black sheep doing wrong
The black sheep, black sheep
Sing this little song
Ain't got no family
Ain't got no home
Ain't got much money
Or shelter from the storm

But I'm know
Rings in the planets and the seas
And I know
What the falling star meant to me, sweet

The black sheep, black sheep
Black sheep saw the sign
The black sheep, black sheep
Circles up, side by side
Then looking at each other
In the eye, they said
I'm bad
I'm bad, alright

I'd rather be bad
Than unruly
I'd be bad
Next to you truly
I'm bad
I'm bad, alright
So bad
So bad

So bad and I can't go back
So bad and I can't go back
So bad and I can't go back
