lyrics

Sheep don’t wear shoes
They tell me sheep don’t wear shoes
And though I’m usually good
And though I try to obey
Maybe it’s time to refuse

I’m a sheep with the blues
Because I wanna wear shoes
They say it’s never been done
They ask me how will you run?
But now I’m sharing this news

My friends try and tell me
What they think is cool
But if I blindly listen
It's me who's the fool
I'll rely on my fine wooly head
I must follow my heart – I’ll no longer be led.

Sheep don’t wear shoes.
They’re saying sheep don’t wear shoes.
And though I think they mean well
And though I’ve heard the advice
Maybe it’s time to refuse.

Why should I go without shoes?
‘Cause they say sheep don’t wear shoes.
I think I’ll wear what I want
I think I’ll find my own way
What have I got to lose?

My friends try and tell me
What they think is cool
But if I blindly listen
It's me who's the fool
I'll rely on my fine wooly head
I must follow my heart – I’ll no longer be led.

Sheep don’t wear shoes
They still say sheep don’t wear shoes
But you see, now I don’t care
I say I’ll wear what I’ll wear
I’m gonna form my own views.

Sheep don’t wear shoes
They're saying sheep don’t wear shoes
And though I think they mean well
And though I’ve heard the advice
I’m gonna form my own views
I need to form my own views
I’ll always form my own views
I’ve got to form my own views!
