When he calls out Oh when they go out
All the world stops and listens
I know I know what's wrong all around me
Oh this is all he's reckoned to be
This is all and when he ponders
He'll wait he'll breathe and know
All around

Oh he waits there and he calls out
For the sheep and so they do come
And he waits there and he calls out
And they call back Oh they come home
To him

On this day like all the others
All the world starts to wonder
He waits he looks and sees
And he'll know now that this is all
He ever wanted and he knows all
About them he looks and so they go
And he calls out

Oh he waits there and he calls out
For the sheep and all the bleating
And he waits there and he calls out
For the sheep now but the sheep have
All gone

Oh he waits there and he calls out
For the sheep and all the bleating
And he waits there and he calls out
For the sheep now but the sheep
Is a wolf!
