[Verse 1] Everybody nods when the right mouth moves Same dead stare same hand-me-down truth Chew it up spit it back call it your belief Funny how a borrowed thought can fit between your teeth You don’t need a leash if you love the fence You don’t need a cage when fear makes sense Keep your head low keep your hands clean Nothing gets dangerous when nobody thinks [Pre-Chorus] One voice two voice three more speak Say it enough and the weak call it deep Step out of line watch the whole room freeze Baa— Baa— Baa— [Chorus] SHEEP FOLLOW THE SOUND SHEEP HEADS TO THE GROUND Say what they say want what they want March in a circle and call it a path SHEEP SAFE IN THE CROWD SHEEP DON’T THINK TOO LOUD If everybody’s right then nobody bleeds So follow follow follow— SHEEP [Verse 2] You wear your outrage like somebody picked it Fresh every morning already scripted Point where they point hate who they hate Then act surprised when the gate is a gate You call it freedom with your mouth full shut Call it conviction when you never looked up I watched a thousand people swear they chose the same road At the same damn time In the same damn clothes [Pre-Chorus] One voice two voice three more speak Pack enough bodies around something weak Nobody questions what everybody needs Baa— Baa— Baa— [Chorus] SHEEP FOLLOW THE SOUND SHEEP HEADS TO THE GROUND Say what they say want what they want March in a circle and call it a path SHEEP SAFE IN THE CROWD SHEEP DON’T THINK TOO LOUD If everybody’s right then nobody bleeds So follow follow follow— SHEEP [Bridge] I don’t hate the herd I hate the comfort The warm little lie that says numbers mean truth I don’t hate the herd I hate the hunger To tear apart anyone who refuses the food [Breakdown] EAT WHAT YOU’RE FED Smile Swallow Nod your head EAT WHAT YOU’RE FED Never ask who filled the trough instead Baa Baa Baa Till the room goes numb Everybody follows Nobody knows where from [Final Chorus] SHEEP FOLLOW THE SOUND SHEEP HEADS TO THE GROUND Say what they say want what they want March in a circle and call it a path SHEEP SAFE IN THE CROWD SHEEP DON’T THINK TOO LOUD If everybody’s right then nobody sees So follow follow follow— SHEEP [Outro] No shepherd needed. You learned the fence by heart.
