James Iha - Pet (Live) lyrics

Don't fret precious I'm here, step away from the window Go back to sleep Lay your head down child I won't let the boogeyman come Counting bodies like sheep To the rhythm of the war drum Pay no mind to the rabble Pay no mind to the rabble Head down, go to sleep To the rhythm of the war drums Pay no mind what other voices say They don't care about you, like I do, like I do Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils See, they don't give a f** about you, like I do Just stay with me, safe and ignorant Go back to sleep Go back to sleep Lay your head down child I won't let the boogeyman come Count the bodies like sheep To the rhythm of the war drums Pay no mind to the rabble Pay no mind to the rabble Head down, go to sleep to the rhythm of the war drums I'll be the one to protect you from Your enemies and all your demons I'll be the one to protect you from A will to survive and a voice of reason I'll be the one to protect you from Your enemies and your choices son They're one in the same I must isolate you Isolate and save you from yourself Swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and Count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums The boogeymen are coming The boogeymen are coming Keep your head down, go to sleep, to the rhythm of a war drums Stay with me Safe and ignorant Just stay with me Hold you and protect you from the other ones The evil ones Don't love you son Go back to sleep
