Pigs, Sheep and Wolves

Paul Simon

Transposer:

Big and fat pig's supposed to look like that Barnyard thug sleeps on straw and he calls it a rug Yeah it's a rug OK he's walking down the street And nobody's going to argue with him he's a half-a-ton of pig meat Up in the hills above the farm   Lives a pack of wolves never did no harm   Sleep all day hunt till four Maybe catch a couple of rodents you know carnivore  Sheep in the meadow nibbling on some clover One of those sheep just wanders over Sits by a rock separated from the flock He's just sitting by a rock   N.C. Where did he go? I don't know Well he was here a minute ago I don't know Sheep's dead Got a gash as big as a wolf's head Oh God Big and fat pig's supposed to look like that Wallowing in lanolin he's rubbing it into his pigskin Oh police are goin crazy sayin "Let's get him let's get that wolf" "Let's get him let's get that wolf" "Let's get him let's kill him let's get him let's kill him" Court-appointed lawyer wasn't very bright Or maybe he was bright maybe it was just a late night Yeah it was just a late night and he files some feeble appeal And the governor says "forget it it's a done deal" "There's an election I don't care election I'll give that wolf a lethal injection" "Let's get him let's get that wolf" "Let's get him let's get that wolf" "Let's get him let's kill him let's get him let's kill him" "Let's get him kill him let's get him let's kill him let's" -- ah N.C.. Whew slow Here comes the media With their their camera Asking everybody's opinion About pigs sheep and wolves Big and fat pig's supposed to laugh like that "This is hilarious what a great time" "I'm the pig who committed the perfect crime"      Ah ha ha ha ha hehehehehehehehe All around the world France and Scandinavia Candle-light vigils protesting behavior It's animal behavior       It's animal behavior       It's pigs sheep and wolves Pigs sheep and wolves Pigs sheep and wolves It's animal behavior It's pigs sheep and wolves

La chanson aborde la dynamique entre différents animaux sur une ferme, notamment le cochon, le mouton et le loup. Le cochon se pavane et se moque de la situation, se sentant invincible et au-dessus des autres. Le loup, souvent mal compris, est présenté comme un prédateur presque injustement accusé d'assassinat lorsqu'un mouton disparaît. L'œuvre met en lumière les injustices et la manipulation médiatique, où l'innocence du loup est éclipsée par la peur et la réaction excessive de la société envers le danger perçu. Le contexte semble évoquer des thématiques contemporaines de culpabilité, de loi et de perception sociale. Les animaux représentent des rôles qui, bien que simples en surface, soulèvent des questions sur la moralité, la justice et la nature même des comportements humains.
