Pulling the wolf in sheeps clothing over your eyes

I was just watching Barry & Stuart street hustler - they're magicians from Great Britain and this video is quite funny. But most of all the mixed metaphor he uses is great:
Like a fox in the fish house, I swivel in and I take my fruit.
(Note: I corrected the quote after a commentor caught my omission)

You call this daily!?

Well, it used to be daily. But I have a few more updates. A few I've come up with and a few from my friends:
Dave:
9 out of 10 doctors agree to disagree
Gio:
I have to pee like a gift horse: in the mouth
I'm sweating like a stuck pig.
"Not for all the tears in China" (from "Too Little, Too Late" sung by Ruth Brown)
Katie:
this may be muddying the water by stirring the pot because, so to speak, there are just too many cooks in the kitchen
Eric:
He's trying to live up to the shadow of his brother
From me:
Throw the long book of the law at him!
