'84 Sheepdog

As Cities Burn

They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain, they fixed it
Before you knew the difference

And if the good Lord's good sheep do their jobs
You would never see they were wolves underneath
But good Lord have you ever seen so many teeth marks
That's right, those containers of light come with a kiss
But they got quite a bite

They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain when you were young
Fixed your brain, they fixed it
Before you knew the difference

They fixed your brain, they fixed it
Before you knew the difference

We got our sidewalks, we got all of our safely lit streets
We got all of our light tested beliefs
But when I find love so bright in the alleyway
They throw her overboard, I watch her get lost in the wake

They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain, they fixed it
Before you knew the difference

They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain, they fixed it
Oh, before you knew it

They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain when you were young
They fixed your brain, they fixed it
Before you knew it, oh
