Shooting Star

There is a sheep living up the stream

A green green world is all that it dreams

He likes to leap and loves to scream

But life is not as easy as it seems

‘Cause the wolves keep on ‘a comin …

There is a lion living in his lair

He sees I all but just doesn’t care

‘Cause that’s the law; Kindness is rare

You cannot afford a deal which is fair

And a howl comes from the middle of nowhere …

The sheep is scares, feels a piercing knife

Gets up and shouts ‘This just ain’t right !’

And a shooting star streaks up in the night …

The king has started scoping for his bait

For some poor souyl it’ll be too late

The vultures have begun to congregate …
