Metric - Black Sheep lyrics

rate me

Black sheep, come home

Black sheep, come home

Black sheep, come home

Hello again, friend of a friend

I knew you when

Our common goal was waiting for the world to end

Now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend

You crack the whip

Shape-shift and trick

The past again

I'll send you my love on a wire

Light you up every time

Everyone, ooh

Pulls away, ooh

From you

Got balls of steel

Got an automobile for a minimum wage

Got real estate, I'm buying it all up in outer space

Now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend

You crack the whip

Shape-shift and trick

The past again

I'll send you my love on a wire

Lift you up every time

Everyone, ooh

Pulls away, ooh

It's a mechanical bull at number one

You'll take a ride from anyone

Everyone wants a ride

Pulls away, ooh

From you
