"Pigs, Sheep And Wolves" lyrics

"Pigs, Sheep And Wolves"

Big and fat, pig's supposed to look like that
Barnyard thug, sleeps on straw and he calls it a rug
Yeah that's a rug, okay, he's walking down the street
And nobody's going to argue with him, he's a half a ton of pig meat

Up in the hills above the farm
Lives a pack of wolves, never did no harm
Sleep all day, hunt 'til four
Maybe catch a couple of rodents, you know, a carnivore

Sheep in the meadow, nibbling on some clover
One of them sheep wanders over
Sits by a rock, separated from the flock
He's just sitting by a rock

Where did he go, I don't know
Well he was here a minute ago
I don't know, sheep's dead
Got a gash as big as a wolf's head
Oh God

Big and fat, pig's supposed to look like that
Wallowing in lanolin, he's rubbing it into his pigskin
Police are going crazy, saying let's get him
Let's get that wolf, let's get him
Let's get that wolf, let's get him
Let's kill him, let's get him, let's kill him

Court-appointed lawyer wasn't very bright
Or maybe he was bright, maybe he just had a late night
Yeah it was just a late night and he files some feeble appeal
And the governor says forget it, it's a done deal

These objections, I don't care, election
Let's give that wolf a lethal injection
Let's get him, yeah get him
Let's kill him, let's get him
Let's kill him, let's get him, kill him
Let's get him and kill him
Whew, slow, here comes the media with their camera
Asking everybody's opinion about pigs, sheep and wolves

Big and fat, pig's supposed to laugh like that
This is hilarious, what a great time
I'm the pig who committed the perfect crime
All around the world, France and Scandinavia
There's candle light vigils protesting this behavior
It's animal behavior, animal behavior

It's pig, sheep and wolves
Pig, sheep and wolves
Pig, sheep and wolves
It's animal behavior
Pig, sheep and wolves
