Lyrics

I realised my fists were clenched I stretched my fingers to relax Still not sleeping, I tried counting sheep One by one They leapt across the fence Constructed for them Right to left Across the fence I had constructed Having jumped They refused further direction Each sheep, where it landed Refusing to exit, remained (Creating a vast writhing heap Growing fast on the left) Try as I might I could not stop them entering Once again Try as they might Not one could leave the stage I realised my fists were clenched I stretched my fingers Each sheep were it landed Refusing to exit, remained (Creating a vast writhing heap Growing quickly on one side) Try as they might Not one could leave the stage Try as I might I could not stop them entering Once again No longer daring to close my eyes Still not sleeping I realised my goose was cooked I wandered shipshaped on the shore
