Pedro The LionAbout
This is the third song from Pedro the Lion’s fourth album, Achilles Heel. The song is about having religious faith despite doubt or lack of evidence. The “fleecing” in the song refers to the Biblical story of Gideon in Judges 6-8, where God tells Gideon to lead an Israelite army against the Midianit...
The Fleecing Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Deep green hills, whose shoulders fade into thick grey
Tall wet grass, whose flesh makes fools of grazing sheep
Whose fleecing makes a fool of me
[Chorus]
Who shall I blame for this sweet and heavy trouble?
For every stupid struggle, I don't know
I could buy you a drink
I could tell you all about it
I could tell you why I doubt it, and why I still believe
[Verse 2]
But I can't say it like I sing it
And I can't sing it like I think it
And I can't think like I feel it
And I don't feel a thing
Oh no, I don't feel it
[Chorus]
Who shall I blame for this sweet and heavy trouble?
For every stupid struggle, I don't know
I could buy you a drink
I could tell you all about it
I could tell you why I doubt it, and why I still believe it
And why I need it
And what the pharisees don't see
We'd have more drinks
We would speak of so many things
But I don't know you, and you don't know me
