The man
In control of this land
Has a secret
And I must keep it
For he is sure to know
Who told

He likes them young
He likes them male
Nobody is ever around to care
I feed the sheep
He feeds me
A deal I cannot delete

It was fun at first
The sheep
The sleep
But then he came
To tame and maim

Children have no voice
Annoying noise
Nobody is ever around to care
Pull of hair
Clothes to tear
Mother and Father
Will never be there

The man
In control of this land
Has a secret
And I must keep it
For he is sure to know
Who told

A Little Boy Blue come blow your horn,
The sheep's in the meadow the cow's in the corn.
But where's the boy who looks after the sheep?
He's under a haystack fast asleep.
Will you wake him? No, not I - for if I do, he's sure to cry
