Cry Wolf

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Run, run, run as fast as you can There's a big bad wolf and he's coming your way Cry wolf, cry wolf Lie, lie, lie 'till you're blue in the face Their attention's yours, 15 minutes of fame Cry wolf, cry wolf [Pre-Chorus] It's an empty trade but you do it well You've got everyone fooled by the lies you tell [Chorus] It's a tangled web that you're weaving now All the seeds you've sown will come back somehow When the danger is real No one will appear 'Cause who can believe The boy who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf [Verse 2] Cry, cry, cry 'cause they're listening now Give the performance of your life then take your bow Cry wolf, cry wolf [Pre-Chorus] It's an empty trade but you do it well You've got everyone fooled by the lies you tell [Chorus] It's a tangled web that you're weaving now All the seeds you've sown will come back somehow When the danger is real No one will appear 'Cause who can believe The boy who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf [Bridge] Caught up in the hysteria Everything that you want and more It's gonna fall, fall down One day when you are alone All you'll have left is what you've done What you've done Caught up in the hysteria Everything that you want and more It's gonna fall, fall down One day when you are alone All you'll have left is what you've done What you've done [Chorus] It's a tangled web that you're weaving now All the seeds you've sown will come back somehow When the danger is real No one will appear 'Cause who can believe The boy who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf Who cried wolf [Outro] You swear that the wolf is coming through When the truth is that the wolf is you
