Kathy Mar - The Sheep Look Up lyrics

Once the world was a wind-up toy, we watched it spin and dance We watch it now from the other side of our last remaining chance And the world falls down like some tired bull in a crimson Spanish ring We've learned to love it far too late to save it from anything Once we dreamed of a soft romance where lovers were sweet and kind But gentle men and ladies fair we never seem to find And so we've settled in lands of lust where decadent pa**ions play And we burn with fever through the night and burn with shame all day And when the children ask us why as we know the children must Why all our world and all our dreams came down to pain and dust Will we blame it on the ones before who never answered our whys Or admit we questioned far to late to save this dream that dies Words and music: Kathy Mar Copyright 1982 Kathy Mar
