The Vampire Viii: Sheep

Shear the sheep Before they shrink They cannot withstand the rain Cut them up And let them bleed Let them know the meaning of pain Gut them slowly Sift through their innards You’ll find their motives impure And just in case You find in them good At least in their death you’ll be sure Now there’s no need To dread the slaughter It’s to save you from yourself How pathetic you are To mingle with animals To grant these ingrates your help
