sheepmandance
sheepmandance
in my dreams I hear her calling from somewhere far away
I don’t even know what to call her but I think it sounds like rain
so I took a train ride to the other side to see what I could see
and wound up here at the dolphin hotel and the sheepman staring back at me
from the back of my mind, by candlelight, he said these words to me…
you’ve got the dance, all you have to do is dancedancedance
for weeks now, maybe months, I’ve been living in this room
I’ve been looking high and low for her, but I haven’t tried the moon
and when the elevator comes to take you back and you’re locked behind the doors
it don’t matter at all which button you push, you’ll wind up on the sheepmanfloor
and left will always be the right, to the sheepman’s words of doom
you’ve got to dance, all you really need to do is dancedancedance
I think, I think I saw her, at the movies on the screen
I think I saw her kissing, someone she shouldn’t have been
and when I ask that fellow that I’ve known since I was three
why he had to kill my girl and blame it all on me
cause the sheepman knows your secrets, so you’d better move your ass
you’ve got to dance, all you’ve got to do is dancedancedance
