The Penguin: Lyrics Index: Cry Wolf

Cry Wolf

Written by J. Johnstone.

You couldn't wait for answers You just had to try those wings And all your happy-ever-afters They didn't mean a thing So I'm not gonna try at all To keep you from the flame Just remember not to call my name When you cry wolf Once too often You cry wolf No, I won't come knockin' You cry wolf I won't hear you anymore If you start to stumble If you start to crack If you're feeling humble Don't Look Back When you cry wolf Once too often You cry wolf No, I won't come knockin' You cry wolf I won't hear you anymore You can try but you can't get me Into the fire 'Cause I'm all out of sympathy And, baby, I can't walk this wire Find yourself somebody new To catch you when you fall 'Cause I got just one thing to say to you And, baby, that's all When you cry wolf Once too often You cry wolf No, I won't come knockin' You cry wolf I won't hear you You cry wolf Well, once too often You cry wolf No, I won't come knockin' You cry wolf I won't see you So you cry wolf Once too often Cry wolf On no, I won't come knockin' If you cry wolf I won't see you 'Cause you cried wolf
