"Sheep Song" lyrics

"Sheep Song"

When I was young
All the men used to want me
But then I got old
And by old I mean twenty
And though I'm not near as naive
The dogs still bite and sheep still bleed
Bahhhhh
Bahh
Bahhhhhhhhhh

When I was young
I let men decorate me
Hand shaped bruises
In the morning
And now I'm not near as naive, no
I hope that you're losing sleep
Ahhhhhh
Ahhh
Ahhhhhhhhhhh

And I've grown harder
Like they always would
It's not hurting
If he's feeling good
And I've grown harder
Guess I'm overdone
It's not growing up
If you're just growing numb

Can't be surprised at the way that they court me
Life's sure hard when you're pushing forty
Now I'm not near as naive, no
I don't care for keeping peace
Ahhhhhh
Ahhh
Ahhhhhhhhhhh

I've grown harder
Like they always would
It's not hurting
If he's feeling good
And I've grown harder
Guess I'm overdone
It's not growing up
If you're just growing numb

And I've grown harder
Like they said I would
Isn't part of
Growing feeling good?
And I've grown harder
Guess I'm done for sure
It's not growing up
If you're just getting worse

And I've grown harder
Like they always would
It's not hurting
If he's feeling good
And I've grown harder
Guess I'm overdone
It's not growing up
If you're just growing numb
