Benjamin, Alec - The Wolf And The Sheep Lyrics
Everybody has to get older
Even Jenny
She's just nineteen, young and naive
She wants to find a way to be endless
Fight the science, in defiance, and be timeless
Silly little girl who tried to live forever, to live forever
Gave away her soul to buy a bit of pleasure, oh, the bitter pleasure
Wicked little boy who tried to steal her treasure, for the bitter pleasure
Now they're cursed forever, cursed together
And if you could see
The look in her eyes
The wolf wore the sheep
As a perfect disguise
And she can't believe
He promised forever
But she never knew the price
He promised forever
But she never knew the price
He promised forever
But she never knew the price
And as she got a little bit older
Look at Jenny
Now she's ninety
Still looks nineteen
And all she knows to do is surviving
Staying alive and
Now she's crying
'Cause she's not dying
Silly little girl who tried to live forever, to live forever
Gave away her soul to buy a bit of pleasure, oh, the bitter pleasure
Wicked little boy who tried to steal her treasure, for the bitter pleasure
Now they're cursed forever, cursed together
And if you could see
The look in her eyes
The wolf wore the sheep
As a perfect disguise
And she can't believe
That she fell for his lies
He promised forever
But she never knew the price
He promised forever
But she never knew the price
He promised forever
But she never knew the price
And if you could see
The look in her eyes
The wolf wore the sheep
As a perfect disguise
And she can't believe
That she fell for his lies
He promised forever
But she never knew the price
He promised forever
But she never knew the price
He promised forever
But she never knew the price

Benjamin, Alec The Wolf And The Sheep Comments
I was in a relationship with a guy who made me feel comfortable about sending him those kinda pics and I was depressed really bad and got jealous and it wasn't healthy well one day he stopped reading my messages I don't know if that had anything to do with it but I can never get those back
There's an error in the lyrics :/ 1:43 i can hear " still looks nineteen " and not " she looks nineteen " xD
i love song
Yo so Jenny is totally the opening woman in If We Have Each other, and what if that child is
Annabelle?!?!?! Who is a wee bit spoiled, making boys do her homework, and telling them she loves them then hanging out with someone else..... all to run away from her troubles at home....?
Literally I thought of this song as a normal wolf and sheep and now it hit me. The meaning of the song was unintentional love
no tentendi ni vErGAS nose inGlEs
My cat name is Jenny and she'll be 19 next February LOL ! 😂
Sorry she'll be 18 next February
“Now she’s crying, cuz she’s not dying”
Me: same mate
is this song about virginity because i feel like it is?
Alec: everybody has to get older, even Jenny
Nobody:
Literally no one:
Me: wHo tHe f*cK iS JeNnY?!
Yes, and why is everyone singing about her?
Look at Jared
*he's nineteen and he never fu"king learned how to read*
This song has such a deep meaning. Alec even tweeted, 'The song means she should her virginity for immortality.' Oh wow
In one of Alec Bengamin's other songs it says "she was nineteen with a baby on the way" so maybe it's the same girl🤔
It’s weird how every different song that Alec makes, tells a different story, and gives me a different feeling. Boy in the Bubble gave me pity. Water Fountain gave me heartbreak. The Wolf and the Sheep literally gives me sadness and fear.
This is one of my favorite songs.
So true we want to live forever but we don't know the consequences of our actions and we would be hurting our friends who grow old and die while we stay young forever and it breaks us to see everyone we care about die.
Everyone here is talking about how the 'curse' is a baby, and I wanted to give my two cents.
I think Jenny made a deal with a Faerie. young and foolish, she asked for immortality, and the 'wicked little boy' provided, putting on the façade of an honest human to lull her into a false sense of security. He promised she would live forever, taking something from her- her True Name, maybe- and she fell for his lies. However, as is always the case when dealing with the Fae, she lost more than she gained. Jenny saw her loved ones wither and die while she stayed timeless, forever nineteen. In despair, she tried to kill herself at ninety, and when it didn't work, she confronted the Faerie who gave her this curse, only for him to tell her she got exactly what she asked- to be timeless- and to shed his sheepskin, revealing himself to be Fae.
I don't know, that's my interpretation.
Can someone explain 0:22?
is he smacking his lips?
was his mouth dry?
Was i the only one who noticed this?
Maybe he was *m o i s t e n i n g* his lips because they got dry?
he is so gooood
my ex once sent me this song, and now I think it was because he wanted me to understand that I was the sheep.
Simple yet powerful meanings behind ths lyrics
But the first two word and the last two and they make
*everybody has the price*
all the dislikes are people who´s tears blinded their eyes when they went to hit the like button
When you switch from Alec to a PatD playlist and Alec's still there. :')
19 year olds now wanna end sooner
If a Doctor Who episode was a song.
I feel like this makes the most sense as a literal Faustian Bargain myth where the girl goes on living forever looking like a 19 year old, but still becomes increasingly feeble and weak.
Sooooo good love his music sooo much♥️
I listened to this song for first time 3 years ago and I still love this song, and I find the lyrics so :""3 im happy UwU
2020 peoples
wow I really love how his lyrics always make you think deep and imagine the story
Vampires this is about Vampires 😂😈
Been listening to this mad for years just found out his name today ;-;)
lol my name is jenny
wwwwwwwwwwwwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwewwwwwwww bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssst sooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggggggggggggg eeeeeeeeeeeeeevvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrr
This song makes me cry idk why it just described my life 😭😭😭😔😔😔😔
for me this song reminds me of someone who sold themselves for eternal living and someone tried stealing it from her and they are bound together because she fell for his lies and she realises what shes become and what shes now bound to
2020 anyone?
I had three kids hell no.
I’m Jenny 👁👄👁
this song means to me so much i was raped by a boy who thought was going to be with me forever truly a wolf in a sheep's clothing
To much autotune :(
Bleeccckk !
I like the rest though.
She never new the price ...
Now she is crying becoz she is not dying 😥that hit me hard 😣
i
liek
this
sung
i love how any single song of him has nightcore versions , but they never needed to pitch his voice XD (nightcore gets pitched up for 25% to avoid copyrights.)
No wonder jimin from bts likes his music it's so inspiring and entertaining I knew about Alec from jimin and now iam addicted ,
😩😊Worth it! Great music
I feel like the story line would go Pretending, The wolf and the Sheep, then If we have each other
Waiting for the twist which all of his songs somehow contain.
I love how the song said "and as she got a little bit older look at jenny now she's ninety" showing how for jenny that is such a small number compared to forever, even though for more humans that's their entire life jenny still has a long journey that sadly will never end.
When you got to the shop and don't check how much it is
"But she never knew the price"
My name is Jenny
DUDE!
IT'S SO ACCURATE AND TRUE!😭😭😭
Brasil?
this is th second time he has rhymed, or used 90 to rhyme with 19
I feel like another meaning would be that a young woman traded her happiness for a toxic relationship and continued to give pieces of herself and her morals away to keep the guy and in the end she looked back on all that she gave away in regret when she realized what she'd done.
vaya descubrimiento de canción
i love all of his songs they are inspiring.
He promised forever
She did not know the lies behind the promises
The devil wore the angel a perfect disguise
Now she is left screaming and shouting out the memories from behind
He's moved on
And she can't believe she never saw the real him and fell for his lies
Screaming and shouting now to forget what were lies all the time.
Basically the story is that the girl wanted to live forever and sold her soul to devil for immortality but the devil just took her body and resided in it wolf wore sheep as perfect disguise the body was of the girl but inside it was devil
This reminds me of Amara and Silas from The Vampire Diaries. Please tell me if u see it too so I know I'm not the only one. 😅😂🤣
Enhance the speed to 1.25 *-*
#~touching~
the real meaning behind this song is that the girl gave her virginity but did not no the price.
I know the real meaning to the song but I can’t help but think about a girl who sold her soul to an evil god for immortality not knowing that she would be his for eternity and wishing she was mortal again

Nice 👌🏻
why isn’t this on iTunes?! 😭
I feel like it'd be sad to see a 90 yr old cry but I forget she still looks 19
Me: Time to be happy
My sad life and this song: PARRY THIS YOU FILTHY CASUAL
To me the moral of the song is to just be happy with what you have and not go after something that you want when you already have enough.
Now there are instances where you should go after things you want but that is only in CERTAIN instances.
If Jenny had been fine with what she had, she would not have had to go through the torturous roller coaster that she did
But she never new the price, (until the deal was done then she regretted it)
Now she’s crying
Cause she’s not dying
Damm that hid me hard
Jenne is 19 if we have echother

Alec Benjamin fans here ❤️🙂 2019
Alec is my favorite musician he is very underrated

This reminds me of Jennie Kim for blackpink
Omg Brandon Rodgers has songwriting credits on this song
He is a damn best

No one:
Not a single soul:
Jenny: I want to live forever, I'd sell my soul for it I swear.
Now Jenny's ninety and she still looks nineteen

"Silly little girl who tried to live forever. To live forever. Gave away her soul to buy a bit of pleasure, oh the butter pleasure. Wicked little boy who tried to steal her treasure. For the butter pleasure. Now their cursed forever, cursed together. And if you could see the look in her eyes. The wolf wore the sheep as a perfect disguise. And she can't believe, that she fell for his lies. He promised forever, but she never knew the price. " this is my favorite verse!
Have you ever read the book or seen the movie Tuck Everlasting? Well, some of the lyrics remind me of the book and movie Tuck Everlasting
Look at Jenny ninty still looks nineteen
I had no idea all those nightcore songs I listened to were by Alec. Definitely my fault for not seeing such talent
Oh it talking about me... My name is Jenny too u.u
This song reminds me of my anorexia. It is a very sneaky and insidious disorder. But it will take away your life.
Jenny being called out
The wolf loved the sheep and the sheep was scared so the wold dressed up like a sheep so she wouldn't be scaed omg you can tell storys soo good
he promised forever but she never knew the price
Eeee the first time I was just
I FORGOT TO LIKE
I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO THIS SONG FOR 2 FUCKING MONTHS AND ONLY JUST REALISED
I HATE MYSELF
I realy like how every song how its own story and you can realy picher them in every one of yours
me thinking of Fairy tail when I listen to this cuz "silly little girl who tried to live forever" Mavis when she wanted no one to die so she cast the cursed spell "gave away her soul to buy a bit of pleasure" again she used the spell so yu could live and her soul as in her growth and she became immortal but at the price of everything around her dies "wicked boy who tried to steal her treasure" zeraf when his curse overpowered hers and when they both came back alive they were cutsed together forever
His songs are so meaningful ❤
I think I understand what the story is but just in case I don’t can someone explain?
Why does this seems like the story of blackpink jenny and exo kai? 🤣
This is like the story of Mavis and Zeleph in Fairy Tail ❤️🤷
Why isn't this sonh available in Spotfy???
