Here are the first words of Sheep from The Pink:
.
"Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air.
You better watch out,
There may be dogs about
I've looked over Jordan*, and I have seen
Things are not what they seem.
.
"What do you get for pretending the danger's not real?
Meek and obedient you follow the leaders
Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel.
What a surprise! A look of terminal shock in your eyes.
Now things are really what they seem.
No, this is no bad dream."
.
Read 'em and weep.
.
Check out both videos.
.
Pink Floyd just might be the most important musical experience of our time. The work deserves our most ardent attention and consideration.

That album was released 30 YEARS ago. An oldie but goodie, for sure. Floyd is so sacrilegious! Hee hee.
.
'Sheep' continued:
.
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
Through pastures green
He leadeth me the silent waters by.
With bright knives He releaseth my soul.
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places.
He converteth me to lamb cutlets,
For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger.
When cometh the day we lowly ones,
Through quiet reflection, and great dedication
Master the art of karate,
Lo, we shall rise up,
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water.
..."

Hi yah!

Animals (album)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animals_(al...

"Each song on the album reflects Waters' socialist beliefs about the class system found in capitalistic societies. The anthropomorphic symbols of the 'dog', the 'pig', and the 'sheep', shift in meaning throughout the album which often leads to some confusion as to Waters' intended meaning in the lyrics.

The 'dog', for instance, changes from a symbol for the heartless businessman in "Dogs" to the object of an irrational fear put forward by the pigs (politicians) in the song "Sheep" to scare the sheep (common people). The meaning of the three symbols changes from song to song, so the lyrics of each song should be interpreted independently

I haven't heard that one in years. What talent! Boy, they sure are young in that video.
.
P.S. I like your fishies, Wendell.
.
And 'Dig' (Incubus) would be appropriate for the Marriage thread. Such a pretty song....
.
"...Yes, you are my friend.
We all have something that digs at us,
at least we dig each other.
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday.
If I turn into another
dig me up from under what is covering
the better part of me.
Sing this song
remind me that we'll always have each other
when everything else is gone..."
